COPING WITH DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

ALL BUSINESSES are facing massive disruption from current and imminent technologies. Mike Pollok’s new book The Business of Change (ISBN: 978 04734 24886) explores the very real digital threats and opportunities facing the country and aims to help Kiwi organisations cope with, and take advantage of, the new realities of business.

The Business of Change reviews many of these key technologies impacting on Kiwi businesses – from Artificial Intelligence (AI) to Robotics, from the Internet of Things (IoT) to 3D Printing to Connected Vehicles.

Mike’s included scores of examples and case studies from New Zealand and elsewhere, and the book explores step-by-step how organisations of any size can reinvent themselves to prepare for digital transformation, and avoid getting left behind.

Christopher Luxon, CEO of Air New Zealand, describes the book as “a practical guide that will help business leaders re-imagine how they unlock the benefits of technological transformation while managing the impact of change.” Vic Crone, chief executive of Callaghan Innovation, explains how The

Business of Change “brings together insights, advice and examples from top thinkers and leading businesses in New Zealand and abroad.

“And it outlines how to surmount common hurdles to digital transformation and thrive amid accelerating change.”
