In episode 22 of the Acceleration Economy Minute, Kieron Allen explains why organizations shouldn’t take the “big bang” approach when implementing new technologies to support digital transformation efforts.
Highlights
00:16 — Kieron highlights a recent article by fellow analyst Bill Doerrfeld on “How to Know If Multi-Cloud Is Right for Your Organization.” He provides a comprehensive view of the benefits of the multi-cloud model and how it can support your organization’s digital transformation.
00:42 — In addition to covering the benefits, he also covers the drawbacks and looks at when multi-cloud might not work for your organization. This perspective can be amplified across the acceleration economy.
01:08 — Companies have a variety of technology options available to help with their digital transformation efforts. However, companies should not just onboard technologies because they’re available; don’t take the “big bang” approach.
01:33 — Rather, organizations should examine technologies, such as multi-cloud, and consider use cases, pain points, and how the tech can truly be beneficial before implementing them. Be specific when identifying how they benefit your company.
02:12 — While you’re expanding your technology stack, don’t get overwhelmed with the number of technologies available. Dig deep into how these solutions could provide you with access to new markets or new customers — but do not take the “big bang” approach.
