Rethink your business for the digital age. Every business begun before the Internet now faces the same challenge: How to transform to compete in a digital economy? Globally recognized digital expert David L. Rogers argues that digital transformation is not about updating your technology but about upgrading your strategic thinking. Based on Rogers's decade of research and teaching at Columbia Business School, and his consulting for businesses around the world, The Digital Transformation Playbook shows how pre-digital-era companies can reinvigorate their game plans and capture the new opportunities of the digital world. Rogers shows why traditional businesses need to rethink their underlying assumptions in five domains of strategy—customers, competition, data, innovation, and value. He reveals how to harness customer networks, platforms, big data, rapid experimentation, and disruptive business models—and how to integrate these into your existing business and organization. Rogers illustrates every strategy in this playbook with real-world case studies, from Google to GE, from Airbnb to the New York Times. With practical frameworks and nine step-by-step planning tools, he distills the lessons of today's greatest digital innovators and makes them usable for businesses at any stage. Many books offer advice for digital start-ups, but The Digital Transformation Playbook is the first complete treatment of how legacy businesses can transform to thrive in the digital age. It is an indispensable guide for executives looking to take their firms to the next stage of profitable growth.

We are having a content crisis! Our attention isn't the same anymore and we the 'content' people have to rethink our approach. We've spent over a decade feeding these massive companies with content and it's more important than ever to own your content footprint. My goal with this book is to bring new life, ideas and synergies to people who've wanted to get back to understanding the value of content in their organization, vertical or for their brand. What soon became clear to me after March 2020 was that it will never be the content that we create that is actually king, it will always be the connection. Platforms, trends, channels, apps, services and groups will always evolve into many forms, but your hard value will be your only factor that you can control.
