Today the “online strategy” is typically
viewed as part of the functional strategy.
Online strategy deals with optimal use of
web/mobile channels. This leads to!
1. a none integrated strategy across
functional silos and in consequence
also inhomogeneous user experience!
2. no or too little and too slow changes
to the business model!
3. a loss of impact due to friction
between business, online and IT being
too much separated!

- 7. Definition of a digital strategy"
A digital strategy defines how a company
uses digital technology to maximize its business results.
It includes (1) a clearly expressed direction and (2) a
verified plan how to achieve this goal."
Digital Leadership © Copyright 2014 Digital Leadership GmbH! Slide 7!
- 8. A digital strategy has to address the following"
1. Redefine / adapt the business model to match new / emerging market realities"
2. Integrate the internal capabilities to maximize usage of resources"
3. Unify and optimize the external interfaces to customers and partners for a seamless
and optimal experience"
4. Bridge the gap between Business, User Experience and Technology"

Business Strategy"
Digital Strategy"
Functional Strategy"
! It is not sufficient to stay on functional
strategy level, as the business model won’t
be adapted to emerging market realities.#
! It is not sufficient on the business strategy
level because digital strategy needs to be
close to execution to achieve the required
speed.#
! To constantly adapt the business model the
digital strategy is mediating between the
functional strategy and the business
strategy.#
! It can’t be parallel to the other strategies as
is has to become integral to all thinking,
doing and needs the “teeth” from being part
of the business.#

- 14. Best practices to create a digital strategy and start transformation"
1. Establish a clear owner responsible for the success of the digital strategy"
! Many companies call this role a Chief Digital Officer (CDO)#
! The CDO should report to the CEO and has his backing#
! The CDO needs to have real business goals and enough budget to
develop a digital strategy #
! The CDO needs to act, manage and negotiate across all silos#
! The CDO needs to own the transformation process#
#
2. Develop the digital strategy in a systematic process"
! Use a well structured cross disciplines process to develop the
digital strategy#
! The digital strategy should be business driven and user centric#
! It incorporates all business needs from the different parts of
your company and should be developed jointly with the
respective business owners#
3. Implement sustaining change"
! Implementing a digital strategy should not be a one of project but the
start of a sustaining change in your company. Therefore:#
! Change the organizational structure as needed (in the long term org
structure defines solutions and therefore customer experience)#
! Kick off a cultural shift. Digital Business is very much about
mindset and culture.#
! Understand that it is the beginning as the world has changed
and won’t return to the old status ever!#
