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 the first attempt.
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.
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.
It does have uses in Digital Transformation thoughWith the announcement of Facebook’s proposal for a blockchain-based currency, I thought it would be a good idea to get in to the subject … It’s time. Time to talk about Blockchain, my apologies.
Here’s a couple of articles to get you up to speed:
The Ambitious Plan Behind Facebook’s Cryptocurrency, Libra - Wired
Top Democrat calls for Facebook to halt cryptocurrency plans until Congress investigates - The Verge
My apologies, in the last issue I omitted to tell you that this week I will be taking a short break from the newsletter. All is fine and I’ll be back next week with a new issue.
See you next week. Thanks for your understanding.
