To begin, make sure you understand that to be digitally mature, your business must use technology that is both flexible and useful. Try not to confuse this with digital transformation, which can lead to digital maturity.
What Does Digital Transformation Mean?
Digital transformation is the process of adopting digital technologies to replace non-digital processes in an organization to improve productivity or services.
It sounds confusing, but this is not the same as digital maturity, although digital transformation could lead to a business becoming more digitally mature.
What is Digital Maturity?
Digital maturity is an organization’s ability to take advantage of and implement new technologies into their business practices that help them better function within the changing market. These technologies change how the industry functions so businesses need to stay up-to-date on them.
Digitally mature companies can implement technological changes as they need them to function in the market. This happens when the company wants to implement changes or when the market forces them to.
Being digitally mature does not mean you simply possess new technologies. To be digitally mature, your organization must have the correct tools and abilities to use these technologies to their full benefit.
How Can My Business Become Digitally Mature?
To be digitally mature, your business needs to do the right research to find out what technologies you need. After that, take an inventory of what technologies are already present, what you need to implement, and what training is necessary for employees to use these technologies.
Following these guidelines puts you on the right track to becoming digitally mature, but remember digital maturity is a constantly evolving process. Because of the nature of digital maturity, you always need to be on the lookout for new technologies and whether your business needs them.
