Digital Maturity
“ They must succeed in
creating transformation
through technology, or
they’ll face destruction
at the hands of their
competitors that do.”
Source: MIT Research Report 2013 Sloan Review
Most companies lack experience with emerging digital technologies.
Beginner companies probably use email, Internet and various kinds of enterprise software. But they have
been slow to adopt, or are skeptical of, more advanced digital technologies like social media and
analytics.
Conservative companies deliberately hang back when it comes to new technologies, although their
management has a vision and effective structures in place to govern technology adoption.
Fashionista companies are very aggressive in adopting new technologies, but do not coordinate well
across departments or have an effective vision in place for dealing with digital business.
Digirati companies have executives that share a strong vision for what new technologies bring, invest in
and manage digital technologies quickly and effectively, and gain the most value from digital
transformation.

But business model transformation is also elusive. A
mere 7% of respondents said that their company’s
digital initiatives were helping to launch new
businesses, and only 15% said new business models
were emerging thanks to digital technology.

Leadership: Defining the Agenda
Source: MIT Research Report 2013 Sloan Review
Many managers feel no urgency to achieve digital
transformation. This may be because so few leaders offer a vision
and a road map for digital transformation, leaving managers
with little motivation for achieving it.

Lori Beer on turning things upside down
WellPoint’s Lori Beer recalled that when she ran operations for the company,
it could only begin to transform customer service when it stopped looking at
traditional service metrics like average speed of answer, and instead started
asking meaningful questions like why customers who had talked to
customer service would then call back. Reframing questions about the
business is a real challenge, because doing so requires a company to
challenge its own assumptions about itself. In other words: It necessitates a
reframing of core assumptions which managers and leaders hold about the
customer-business interaction.

FAKTA
• Mere en én milliard
mennesker er på sociale
medier
• 85 % af kundeskaren
foretrækker at virksomheder
interagerer med dem via
sociale medier
• Ledere antager, at sociale
medier skaber positive
virksomhedsresultater
Ringberg & Rydén Service Platforms
Årskonference 2015
Afgørende barrierer er
topledelsens manglende
forståelse for sociale
mediers potentiale er:
• strategisk refleksion
omkring implementering
af sociale medier
I SÅ FALD HAR VI BRUG FOR AT FORSTÅ:
1. Hvilke faktorer, der påvirker denne meningsskabelse
(mentale modeller) og strategiske beslutninger?
2. Hvilke forskellige uartikulerede antagelser om hvordan en
virksomhed bør interagere med dets omverden?

Mental Context
Our mental mindset is extremely influenced by subconscious processes
MENTALE MODELLER:
Vi ser, hvad vi forventer at se
• Vores mentale modeller er
baseret på tidligere erfaringer
og viden
• Vi forventer, at nye input
tilpasser sig vores mindset
• Vi er ‘villige’ til at forvrænge
korrekte informationer
• Mentale modeller kan være
svære at ændre

OPVARMNINGSSPØRGSMÅL
1. Hvordan vil du i ét ord beskrive din organisations
interaktion med jeres kunder
(brugere/borgere/klienter)via sociale medier?
2. Hvad er det primære formål med interaktionen?
3. Hvilken værdi skaber interaktionen?

“It [social media] is active or passive
advertising: If you just display your
product or brand or mention hereof, I
see it as passive advertising. I see it
as active advertising too, when
customers talk positively about my
business, my brands, and products.
The point is to get some messages
out”

“It is ‘networking’ in relation
to the work and because
there are many people
involved. Moreover,
because I believe that part
of what we can do with
networks and social media
is to relate globally across
borders and all that. So we
also relate with people
whom we don’t know or
see.”

everybody can
communicate with each
other; share information,

flow to the places where it’s

enlightenment project.
Ideally, it is about
enlightening everybody in
order to make the world a

KONKLUSION
1.
Lederes tankeprocesser påvirker implementering af ny
teknologi (vanetænkning)
2.
Der er et marketing vs. forretningsstrategisk bias
3.
Ledere er tilbøjelige til (ubevidst) at overføre ’offline-logikker’
til virtuel interaktion
4.
Der er forskellige forståelser og ledere agerer ikke altid på det,
de oplever
5.
Ledere, der ikke er præget af en traditionel
marketingforståelse, har lettere ved at anvende sociale
medier på radikale nye måder.
Ringberg & Rydén Service Platforms
Årskonference 2015
LEDELSESMÆSSIGE IMPLIKATIONER
• Sociale medier ændrer ikke på noget af sig selv
• Brug af sociale medier som ’marketingredskab’ skaber
ikke automatisk implementering på højere strategisk
niveau over tid
• Hvis virksomheder vil ændre deres praksis vha. sociale
medier må lederne ændre deres mentale modeller
• Dette er hårdt arbejde grundet etablerede rutiner og
modstand mod forandringer (ubehag og forvirring)

En klassisk udfordring…
OO+NT = EOO
Old Organization + New Technology = Expensive Old Organization
HUSK AT INTRODUKTION AF TEKNOLOGI
IKKE MEDFØRER EN NY STRATEGISK TILGANG…
TIL DET KRÆVES DER ET NYT MINDSET…
