By Dr. Alin Posteucă

More and more companies are lining up for the new journey of profitable digital transformation.

The following 10 major challenges of profitable digital transformation I have met in several production companies in recent months:

  1. The Lack of Real Managerial Commitment for Digital Transformation;
  2. Lack of a Robust Multiannual Master Plan for Digital Transformation;
  3. Resistance to Change at All Levels;
  4. The Lack of Total and Continuous Involvement of All Departments and Beyond;
  5. Reactive Managerial Behaviour;
  6. Poor or Poorly Defined Processes (especially the future ones);
  7. Poor or Poorly Defined Work Method (especially the future ones);
  8. Incorrect and/or Incomplete Improvement Project Implementation;
  9. Lack of a Real Pre-assessment Mechanism of the Opportunity and Feasibility of Digital Transformation;
  10. Make-or-Buy Digital Transformation.

Are these major challenges true? Which do you think are the most important? Why?
