Abstract

In the last chapter we saw digital leaders seemingly accelerating away from other organisations through developing and deploying their core capabilities for digital transformation. But there is nothing inevitable about this scenario. One mistake is to assume that the way forward is to replicate what digital leaders are doing. But this is the ‘best practice Best practice’ myth that has beset management consultancy advice for decades. A simple analogy exposes its limitations. If you are educating a remedial child, do you give it the same treatment as the brightest of the bright? Do you make the same assumptions about how progress will be made? No, you do not.
