Digital business transformation: how and why to change in the digital era

Any process of introducing certain technologies proceeds differently in different firms. One is characterized by a phased work in this direction: all actions occur sequentially. Such firms are usually classified as conservative. But there are those who are prone to rapid and active innovative changes. The update may concern the entire organizational infrastructure. And one of the modern key tools that can significantly affect the efficiency of an organization is digitalization. Many leading domestic and world scientists are inclined to believe that the digitalization process should be implemented gradually, while choosing a strong unit, developing a pilot project for it and hiring the most experienced specialist in this field. The dispute of scientists also raises the question of where it is necessary to start the digital transformation of business. Should it be a close relationship in the field of cooperation between the IT department and the management of the company, or are there other ways of development? The national economy unites various business areas, social institutions, non-profit organizations. For some of them, digital transformation is vital, while others are “looking at it”. But it is necessary to recognize the fact that the digitalization process has been launched and is actively gaining momentum. Sooner or later it will cover all spheres of the national economy.
