Download or read book The Innovator’s Imperative written by Stephen J Andriole and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pace of technological change is accelerating, hyper competition is growing, opportunities for business model disruption are exploding, and comprehensive cloud delivery is readily available. These factors challenge every aspect of business technology strategy. The Innovator’s Imperative: Rapid Technology Adoption for Digital Transformation prepares twenty-first century businesses leaders for competing and leading in this disruptive digital environment. Five years of research conducted by the authors suggests that leading companies have all but abandoned the requirements analysis and modeling best practices of the twentieth century. Accordingly, the authors put forth the innovator’s imperative that contends: All companies wanting to be competitive should adopt emerging and disruptive technologies as quickly as possible, and in many cases, immediately. Technology is driving business strategy, and companies are rethinking their technology strategy, especially the governance that determines how and why technology investments are made. Based on their research the authors have developed a five-step framework for digital transformation: Model and simulate Identify high-leverage opportunities Prioritize transformational targets Identify digital opportunities Find courageous leaders The book explains each of these steps to guide business leaders in architecting digital transformation projects according to their organization’s market positions, budgets, objectives, and corporate culture. Hyper-competitive, disruptive companies are jumping across technology adoption phases without regard to any phasing whatsoever. Companies focused on digital transformation often adopt emerging technologies immediately. They have become early adopters of technologies that can impact existing—and create whole new—business models and processes. This book examines this jump into new technologies, processes, and business models to prepare twenty-first century business leaders to make that leap.

Book excerpt: In his In the blink of an eye, Walter Murch, the Oscar-awarded editor of The English Patient, Apocalypse Now, and many other outstanding movies, devises the Rule of Six -- six criteria for what makes a good cut. On top of his list is "to be true to the emotion of the moment," a quality more important than advancing the story or being rhythmically interesting. The cut has to deliver a meaningful, compelling, and emotion-rich "experience" to the audience. Because, "what they finally remember is not the editing, not the camerawork, not the performances, not even the story---it's how they felt." Technology for all the right reasons applies this insight to the design of interactive products and technologies -- the domain of Human-Computer Interaction, Usability Engineering, and Interaction Design. It takes an experiential approach, putting experience before functionality and leaving behind oversimplified calls for ease, efficiency, and automation or shallow beautification. Instead, it explores what really matters to humans and what it needs to make technology more meaningful. The book clarifies what experience is, and highlights five crucial aspects and their implications for the design of interactive products. It provides reasons why we should bother with an experiential approach, and presents a detailed working model of experience useful for practitioners and academics alike. It closes with the particular challenges of an experiential approach for design. The book presents its view as a comprehensive, yet entertaining blend of scientific findings, design examples, and personal anecdotes.

Download or read book The Adoption of Self-Service Technologies written by Claudia Jasmand and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2007-06-06 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 9, Maastricht University, language: English, abstract: The combination of today’s ever increasing competition in the marketplace and rapid technology development change the way how services are designed, produced, and experienced. One of the outcomes of this changing nature of services is the proliferation of self-service technologies, which reflect a new way how companies seek to efficiently serve their customers. However, not all self-service technologies are successfully adopted, and not all consumers engage in the technology-based self-service economy. So, what drives consumers to provide services by themselves without service employee involvement? This master thesis aims at gaining further insight into the factors being critical to the consumers’ adoption of self-service technologies. In particular, this research focuses on the role of consumer readiness consisting of role clarity, motivation, and ability, and the moderating effects of consumers’ trust and experiences related to the service provider and the self-service technology on the consumers’ voluntary decision to use airlines’ self-check-in op-tions. In addition, a potential self-service technology interface dependence of the adoption factors’ influence is examined by means of a scenario-based approach. The corresponding empirical study makes use of a web-based survey facing the 239 respondents with the choice between the counter check-in and either a kiosk or Internet check-in option. The results confirm the critical role of motivation and role clarity, but question the raison-d’être of the dimension ability. The findings also provide evidence for trust and experiences having moderating effects on the relationship between consumer readiness and self-service technology use. A potential self-service technology interface dependence of the factors is suggested by the results; however, the alternative explanation that the sample’s Internet-experience is responsible for the identified dependence can not be ruled out. This master thesis contributes to a deeper understanding of critical factors influencing the adoption of self-service technologies, and underlines the importance of integrating all three aspects relevant to SST adoption – the consumer, self-service technology, and service provider.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research identifies and describes the impact of customer experience on the adoption of information technology products. The research findings are applied to the business case of a global technology firm entering into in the cloud computing space. We chose a customer-centric lens in order to better understand how information technology is turned into value for the customer. We complemented well-defined industry-level models of technology adoption by building an original system dynamics model of the relationships of the technology firm with its enterprise customers. Important dynamics were derived from the review and analysis of selected leading edge managerial frameworks that were best suited for the studied business. The market analysis includes interviews with potential enterprise and small business cloud customers, market analysts, and executives at several companies selling cloud computing services. At the firm level, we modeled the effect of different product launch and development strategies and the impact of organizational learning on new business development. The system dynamics model is a management flight simulator that overcomes the limitations of classical management frameworks. The model was calibrated against historical product adoption data that was provided by a leading global information service provider. By running different scenarios, managers may simulate the impact of investments in research and development and marketing. Managers may also test the implications of successfully designing a positive customer experience and of adopting a culture of continuous improvement and business experimentation. The results of this study show that in order to survive and compete in the digital economy, information technology companies need to shed a comfortable yet myopic focus on technology advantage and acquire the capability to develop and execute business strategies focused on excellent and inimitable customer experience. The willingness to experiment and ability to learn are critical success factors. Sustainable competitive advantage also hinges on having the ability to run business experiments, fail, learn from failures and effectively spread that knowledge through the organization.

This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the potential role that digital technologies can play in promoting well-being. Smartphones, wearable devices, virtual/augmented reality, social media, and the internet provide a wealth of useful tools and resources to support psychological interventions that facilitate positive emotions, resilience, personal growth, creativity, and social connectedness. Understanding the full extent of this potential, however, requires an interdisciplinary approach that integrates the scientific principles of well-being into the design of e-experiences that foster positive change. This book provides an overview of recent advances and future challenges in Positive Technology, an emergent field within human-computer interaction that seeks to understand how interactive technologies can be used in evidence-based well-being interventions. Its focus of analysis is two-fold: at the theoretical level, Positive Technology aims to develop conceptual frameworks and models for understanding how computers can be effectively used to help individuals achieve greater well-being. At the methodological and applied level, Positive Technology is concerned with the design, development, and validation of digital experiences that promote positive change through pleasure, flow, meaning, competence, and positive relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolutionary new resource that brings documentation product management ideas up to date The 1994 bestselling classic Managing Your Documentation Projects set the industry standard for technical documentation. However, since then, much has changed in the world of information development. With this new title, JoAnn Hackos looks beyond the structured project of the 1980s and 1990s. Instead, she focuses on the rapidly changing projects of the 21st century and addresses how to introduce agile information development without neglecting the central focus of planning information design and development around the needs of information users. As an information-development manager, you are expected to reduce costs and project time, do more work with fewer resources and less money, and increase the value of the information you deliver. Recognizing this, Hackos has carefully designed this book to help you do precisely that. She helps you make strategic decisions about information development and directs the discussion of project management toward smarter decision-making. An update of the original 1994 Information Process Maturity Model (IPMM) presents you with a method by which you can compare the state of your organization to others, evaluate your current status, and then consider what is necessary in order to move to the next level. Information Development offers a completely new look at best practices for all phases of the document development lifecycle, including: Managing a corporate information portfolio Evaluating process maturity Partnering with customers and developing user scenarios Developing team effectiveness and collaboration Planning and monitoring information projects Managing translation and production Evaluating project performance Managing for quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness The companion Web site includes electronic versions of the templates and checklists featured in the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It. is well known that t.he introduction of a new technology in one organization not always produces the intended benefits (Levine, 1994). In many cases, either the receivers do not reach the intended level of use or simply the technology is rejected because it does not match with the expectations (true or false) and the accepted psychological effort to use it. The case of formal methods is a paradigmatic example of continual failures. The published cases with problems or failures only constitute the visible part of a large iceberg of adoption cases. It. is difficult to get companies to openly express the problems they had; however, from the experience of the author, failure cases are very common and they include any type of company. Many reasons to explain the failures (and in some cases the successes) could be postulated; however, the experiences are not structured enough and it is difficult to extract from them useful guidelines for avoiding future problems. Generally speaking, there is a trend to find the root of the problems in the technol ogy itself and in its adequacy with the preexistent technological context. Technocratic technology transfer models describe the problems in terms of these aspects. Although it is true that those factors limit the probability of success, there is another source of explanations linked to the individuals and working teams and how they perceive the technology.

Book excerpt: Technology change is modeled as the result of decisions of individuals and groups of individuals to adopt more advanced technologies. The structure is calibrated to the U.S. and postwar Japan growth experiences. Using this calibrated structure we explore how large the disparity in the effective tax rates on the returns to adopting technologies must be to account for the huge observed disparity in per capita income across countries. We find that this disparity is not implausibly large.
