, 1.1.3 What is Business Transformation?
Business transformation - Two-important axis:
х Degree of potential benefits (low-high).
ϓ Degree of business transformation (low-high).
Two Approaches to business transformation:
o High degree of potential benefits & business
transformation the top right of the model. It’s
about changing strategy & vision. There, you can
improve your capabilities in a top-down process:
1. Business Scope Redefinition
2. Business Network Redesign
o At the bottom right, we’re at the root: where we
update processes and integrate. Bottom-up approach. =
This class’ focus. Includes: (1) Internal Integration & (2)
Localized Exploitation In short, two ways to reach business process redesign
1.2 Business Strategy: Vision & Mission
In this course, we start with the business part and we take the
CIO/consultant perspective. E.g., say you are CIO of Volkswagen, you
think of:
What IT strategy would I choose? Note that the IT strategy is
closely related to the business strategy.
Which strategic IT investments would you make?
