What is digitization?
Digitization is a major evolution that impacts business lines, processes, culture and the company’s economic model. It integrates digital technologies into all aspects of the organization, from strategy to day-to-day management. To steer and support digital transformation, the use of interim management is essential. It ensures a smooth transition and successful adoption of digital innovations.
Why adopt a digitalization strategy?
Digitalization is a major challenge for companies wishing to remain competitive and seize the growth opportunities offered by the dynamic Middle East market. Here’s why:

- 4
Keeping in step with consumer expectations: today’s consumers are increasingly connected and demanding in terms of user experience. Companies that offer innovative and intuitive digital solutions therefore have an undeniable competitive advantage.
How do you implement digitalization in your company?
Define a clear, ambitious vision
It all starts with a clear vision of the company’s needs and the objectives to be achieved through digitalization. This vision must be ambitious and shared by all employees.
Involving stakeholders
Digitization concerns the whole company, so it’s important to involve the various stakeholders right from the start of the process. This includes employees, managers, IT departments and executives.
Selecting the right technologies
This can include integrated management software, process automation tools, cloud computing solutions, online collaboration platforms and more. The aim is to select solutions that are scalable and compatible with each other, to guarantee seamless integration.
Training teams
The success of digitalization depends to a large extent on employees’ ability to use new technologies effectively. The interim manager can integrate training sessions, online tutorials, documentation supports, as well as individual coaching if required.
Manage the project and monitor results
Once digitalization has been implemented, it’s time to monitor its adoption and impact on the company. This involves monitoring performance, gathering feedback and adjusting strategies where necessary.

- Immediate expertise: their professional background enables them to quickly understand the specific issues facing a company, and to provide appropriate solutions in an efficient manner.
- Used to working in complex environments: their ability to adapt quickly to new situations enables them to make informed decisions and implement flexible strategies to achieve set objectives.
- A different perspective: their fresh look at the company’s challenges enables them to identify opportunities for improvement and propose innovative solutions.
