Davenport, President's Distinguished Professor of Information Technology and Management, Babson College This book is a worthy follow-up to the author's previous work, The Digital Transformation Playbook (2016), and expands the scope to help organizations plan for successful transitions to the digital world. Rogers (Columbia Business School) uses a plethora of models and case studies to break down the steps an organization needs to follow and the challenges it may need to conquer to weather the difficulties of digital transformation. In contrast to the author's previous book, this one takes a more holistic view of an organization's governance, culture, and other business-wide concerns. A book for leaders of large organizations ushering their businesses into the future, it is easy to read and understand and poses many thought-provoking questions and example scenarios that can help leaders assess whether they are ready to move their companies forward. * Choice Reviews, American Library Association (ALA) * Informative, comprehensive, motivational, inspiring, and thoroughly 'user friendly' in organization and presentation. * Midwest Book Review *
