  • Part 9 - A 5 stage process for Digital Transformation

    Customers 2.0, Networked, Connected and Interactive

    I’m back after a short and very unconnected holiday in St Lucia, an island I am very fond of for many reasons. I’m looking forward to getting back into the swing of writing more frequently and developing the other project I hinted about in a previous post. Stay tuned.

    Lastly, I hope the title renaming doesn’t throw you off guard too much. To keep some consistency, I’ve titled this issue as planned with “Issue XX” removed.

  • The Housekeeping Issue

    Digitally transforming digital organisations | Autonomous vehicles and the Caribbean

    To start, some housekeeping. I’ll not publish this Friday as I’ll be taking a last-minute vacation for a few days this week. I’ll mostly be offline for well-deserved rest. Back to a normal schedule next week. Lastly, I’ve decided to ditch the issue number system before it becomes too unwieldy. Imagine Issue No. 14159265: ... Not good! It is for a good cause, however. I have something new I want to test over the coming weeks/months. I’ll let you know soon.

    In trying to explain Digital Transformation to organisations that are interested in it, we technical people tend to lose sight of the big picture and confuse business leaders by burying the discussion in technical jargon, this is direct feedback I’ve received recently. In order to deal with this, I thought I’d try to demystify the subject, this is my first attempt.

    Firstly, my apologies! Last weeks’ issue was prematurely sent due to my error. I hope you didn’t mind too much. I’ll strive to ensure that it doesn’t happen in the future. I value enormously the privilege I have to communicate with you directly and I would be horrified to learn I over stepped the mark.

  • Issue 25: Interview with Greggar Deterville, RIDE Caribbean

    Digital Transformation in action in the Caribbean

    Hello everyone. Hope you enjoy this, slightly different issue.

    After appearing on the ICT Pulse podcast, and writing about public transport in the Caribbean, I met up (online) with the CEO of RIDE Caribbean after writing about it. RIDE Caribbean is a startup hoping to do some of the things I’ve been talking about, and more! This week is an interview with Greggar Deterville, where we discuss some of the issues surrounding start-ups in this category, in the Caribbean and what the opportunities and difficulties are in reality, on the ground so to speak.

  • Issue 21: Public Transportation in the Caribbean

    An opportunity for digital platforms?

    Good day to all, wherever you are.

    As you may be aware, I was a guest on Episode 54 of the ICT Pulse podcast where I discussed the opportunity for ride-hailing services as an extension to public transport in the Caribbean. At the time I was researching and writing notes for an article I was going to publish on a blog, but I thought it fitted better here.

  • Issue 20: Digital Transformation is dead ...

    Long live Digital Transformation?

    Good morning from Martinique

    Sometimes these newsletters practically write themselves. With some effort and editing, I get them in to a state worth publishing and with my ideas fully fleshed out. Other times, I’m struggling to finish the writing and it's almost always for the same reason. My ideas aren’t fully baked yet. This is one of those, so I’m putting it out there for discussion, pushback and to get me to drive this thought forward.
