Practical Digital Transformation

Practical Digital Transformation

Our Practical Digital Transformation journey is our recommendation if you want to rethink every aspect of your organisation, harnessing the power of digital technology. It's our no-nonsense program with a focus on making s*it happen.

Making sh*t happen?

Yes. We make sh*t happen. We won't be delivering you 500 page strategy powerpoint documents that lie around gathering digital dust. Humblebee are makers, do'ers and problem solvers. We'll put digital tools in the hands of your most important users, and those tools will create or save you money.

Why do you need this Journey?

Unless your company started life 'digital native', for example a software-first business, there is a high chance you have not completed a digital transformation. One that fully harnesses the power of digital technology across every aspect of the organisation.

Why now?

If you're reading this, you're already aware that the pace of change within technology and society rapidly increases every year. You're also already aware that industries are ever more converging into each other. This opens up challenges for you within almost every aspect of your organisation: the services and business models you offer; your distribution channels; the skills of your staff; changing client needs and expectations... and much more.

Who is this for?

A Practical Digital Transformation Journey together with Humblebee is suited to C-Level staff with a clear commitment and mandate from senior management.

What are the business benefits?

The business benefits and key results of a practical digital transformation can be far reaching. After 1 year we will have helped you launch prioritised key initiatives, each of which must pass "go/no go" gates as we produce them. This approach means small bets, at pace, leading to real growth. No huge bets with small returns.

The process of working together with Humblebee will be a factor in boosting digital culture and capabilities within your staff.

What is the process?

Practical Digital Transformation is a methodic, pragmatic process. With the commitment of senior management we will:

• Help you identify your priority starting points.
• Help you set clear, ambitious targets.
• Start building key initiatives sometimes referred to as 'Lighthouse Projects'.
• We will assign you a high-calibre Transformation Team.
• Organise and promote new ways of agile working.
• Help set up and implement a digital-first culture at your organisation.
• Bring Lighthouse Projects to market and prepare for scale up.

How long does this take?

We estimate this as a 12 month process. By Month 12 we will have key Lighthouse Projects underway and will be able evaluate, consolidate and plan for your scaling and future growth in months 12-36.

Who will be carrying this out?

A dedicated Product Team of high-calibre Humblebee staff together with domain experts from your organisation. Your Product Team will include experts within business design, service and user experience design, and technical expertise. However domain knowledge and branch expertise comes from your side.

What do we need from you?

Practical Digital Transformation is a large undertaking and must come with the full commitment of your most senior staff.

We also need you in our team. Our process is tried and tested, but only succeeds when you and your staff are part of our team. That means being available, being enthusiastic, committing to workshops and projects wholeheartedly.
