Digital Transformation: Developing Skills and Cultures
Abstract
Digitalization is completely transforming the way companies work and their organization. The focus point for any innovation is not only the development of digital competence but rather to help the organization change its culture. We are now going through a profound metamorphosis in the professions, in qualifications and also in the organizations themselves which means we are now experiencing a period of greater uncertainty and complexity as we search for new working patterns and increased knowhow. The digitalization profoundly modifies the way enterprises work: it modifies their methods of production, reshapes their structure, introduces new ways and platforms of communication and increases skills and changes organizational culture. In this paper, a research aiming to understand the different digital skills and cultures of an Italian company of 4.000 employees will be presented.
