7. Path to Progress
Technology is the “driver” not just the “enabler” of
business success and opportunity
When people adopt technology, they merely do old
things in new ways.
When people internalize technologies, they find new
things to do.
8. Current Drivers
Connectivity of people and things is rapidly
expanding to being everywhere and anytime.
An ocean of information is getting collected, clever
algorithms are sifting through it and finding insights
These large datasets are enabling a new set of
applications
that elevate the consumer experience at every touch
point
New products, services and value is being created
and delivered rapidly over platforms
What you sell is no longer perceived as just a
product or service by the consumer. It is about
something at the center of the “total customer
experience”.
