Why governance is the key to ROI in digital transformation

A major common contributor of almost all transformation flops is poor governance. Digital transformation involves every aspect of an organization and everyone in it. Structured governance is essential to ensure that everyone takes the same approach to common goals, in a coordinated, timely way. It also provides mechanisms to constantly check progress, address problems and adjust goals as necessary because no one operates in a static market.

This white paper looks at:



  • The drivers of digital transformation

  • The fundamental attributes of platform-based business and operational models

  • How to leverage good governance, starting with the Bezos Edict regarding a disciplined, consistent approach and application of technology

  • Ecosystems, and the power of scalability and automated integration

  • Examples of failed digital transformation efforts – and successes

  • Recommendations to help you succeed at digital transformation.
