Digital transformation is more important than ever now that we’re in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, where the lines between the physical, digital, and biological worlds are becoming ever more blurred. But fully 70 percent of digital transformations fail. In this book, Saldanha lays out a five-stage process for moving from digitally automating processes here and there to making digital technology the very backbone of your company. For each of these five stages, Saldanha describes two associated disciplines vital to the success of that stage.

Story
Digital technologies are disrupting organizations of every size and shape, leaving managers scrambling to find a technology fix that will help their organizations compete. This book offers managers and business leaders a guide for surviving digital disruptions - but it is not a book about technology. It is about the organizational changes required to harness the power of technology. The authors argue that digital disruption is primarily about people and that effective digital transformation involves changes to organizational dynamics and how work gets done.

Within our lifetimes, AI will, by design, begin to behave unpredictably, thinking and acting in ways which defy human logic. The big nine corporations may be inadvertently building and enabling vast arrays of intelligent systems that don't share our motivations, desires, or hopes for the future of humanity.

Digital transformation is no longer news - it's a necessity. For more than a decade, Gupta has studied digital transformation at Fortune 500 companies. He knows what works and what doesn't. Merely dabbling in digital or launching a small independent unit, which many companies do, will not bring success. Instead you need to fundamentally change the core of your business and ensure that your digital strategy touches all aspects of your organization: your business model, value chain, customer relationships, and company culture.

Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

Both How AND Why for Techies

By: Erik Brynjolfsson, and others
Publisher's Summary
From visionary Silicon Valley entrepreneur Tom Siebel comes a penetrating examination of the new technologies that are disrupting business and government - and how organizations can harness them to transform into digital enterprises.
The confluence of four technologies - elastic cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, and the internet of things - writes Siebel, is fundamentally changing how business and government will operate in the 21st century.
Siebel masterfully guides listeners through a fascinating discussion of the game-changing technologies driving digital transformation and provides a roadmap to seize them as a strategic opportunity. He shows how leading enterprises such as Enel, 3M, Royal Dutch Shell, the US Department of Defense, and others are applying AI and IoT with stunning results.
Digital Transformation is the guidebook every business and government leader needs to survive and thrive in the new digital age.

The bible for your Digital Transformation projects
It's always an advantage to me when the authors read their books, and Tom Siebel effortlessly conveys all of his experience and seriousness with his reading performance.
The book was well structured, and in theory, it would allow a listener to jump to chapters of their particular interest easily. The insights provided were highly relevant to me as a manager in a software company, even though the target audience would likely be business executives and consultants.
I found myself taking many notes, as the book is full of compelling facts and relevant advice. It was nice to see that Tom Siebel shared blueprints from his own company C3.ai of how to succeed with digitial transformation projects.

Good business ovetview
This book really helps you understand what role you can play and what you need to know to dive digital transformation in business.
If you're not techy I'd suggest you read chapters and 2 and then you jump to 10-12 only to go back yo the others later. And maybe read again 10-12 with a different appreciation.
The book houses interesting nuggets of the non tech important aspects you need to know yo embark on a digital transformation. Unfortunately it points out to sources to better understand the technology underpinnings (which is essential and greatly appreciated) but does not offer similar resources for the non tech aspects of DT.
The audio version is no good. The reader is very slow (fortunately you can compensate for it by speeding up) but the voice is still harsh and unclear.

From a professional in the field....
From a professional that helps clients implement or execute digital transformations, this book is nicely detailed and provides a good balance between an overview and depth.
That said the narrator couldn’t sound more boring. I had to take breaks from listening to this book and going to other material because he was utterly monotonous. Highly recommend getting a new narrator and republishing.

Interesting listen ruined by the narrator
An interesting introduction to various elements of digital transformation from a leadership perspective. However, the author narrates at a snail's pace, pauses for too long and inspires sleep. It is the worst narration I've ever heard. This issue can be alleviated by listening at 1.75x speed, but even then his voice is still not suitable for the content.

Great book spoiled a little by competitive bias
I want to say upfront that Thomas Siebel obviously has major biases towards anything that he's ever worked on and seems to deliberately ignore certain vendors (in competition with his) that are and have been key to driving Digital Transformation.
Accept the above bias (most probably won't even notice) and you'll be rewarded with a very informative book about the key pillars of the 4th industrial revolution. The middle four chapters that go in to detail on each pillar don't really provide anything that you don't get from elsewhere in the book so I would suggest skipping them.
I would definitely recommend that people read this if they want to know more about Digital Transformation.
