"RACE TO REINVENT: THE DIGITAL DETERMINATION PLAYBOOK"

When it comes to reinvention - of an organization's product, processes, systems and culture - there is an increasing divide between organization who are "all-in" with digital transformation (DX) and those who are just going through the motions.

IDC's research shows that 40% of organizations are making the strategic, organizational, technological, and financial decisions that are leading them to DX success in the next several years. These organizations are the Digitally Determined. The leaders of there organizations have the intestinal fortitude to make the tough decisions that are required to drive the organizations ahead, and to champion a disciplined execution that aligns digital initiatives, technologies and roadmaps across the entire organization.

But digital determination is more than just tenacity; it requires a blueprint, a digital playbook that includes:

1. A single enterprise strategy crossing all business and functional areas
2. A resoluteness towards organizational and culture changes
3. A long-term investment strategy based on the principle that digital is inherently valuable to the business.
4. A single digital platform to scale technology innovations.

At this year's CIO Summit, IDC Analyst and industry leader will provide insight to help CIOs piece together a playbook for taking their organization from being Digitally Distraught to Digitally Determined.
