Digital Transformation

Digital Transformation with Jack Maher Jack and Jay speak with James Breunig and Hoda Alshami about Agile, DevOps, and how companies can implement Agile practices without big costs (especially newer and smaller organizations)and technology tools that enable innovation and responsiveness that delight stakeholders even in highly complex technical environments and regulated industries. James walks us through an Agile (Scrum) implementation at a small IT shop (<10 people) on a shoestring budget, while enabling growth and scaling without any need to re-tool or re-organize. Then Hoda tells us about the responsiveness they were able to provide to hurricane victims who needed immediate changes to business rules and capabilities in a highly complex and regulated environment, using the practices James describes.

Digital Transformation with Jack Maher The essence of digital transformation is a focus on value and values. Our organizations' purpose is to create and deliver value. How we determine and prioritize value is a manifestation of our values.

Digital Transformation with Jack Maher Jack and Jay discuss Digital Transformation, what we think it means, and who we think we're talking to (you, of course!). We talk about the show format, topics well cover, and things that we learned over the course of interviews that we include in these 12 episodes. Preview a few highlights, and what might be different in Season 2. Jess Bodzo, our guest for today's show does a great job of providing an overview of what he sees in macro trends such as working in the soon to become dominant trend of the Gig Economy (and the citizen developer), the culture of sharing that represents the face of technologists today, and how this works for a restaurant, or helping a church connect those in need with resources.

Digital Transformation with Jack Maher & Jay Matta Not-for-profit organizations are a very important part of today's society, and they face different issues than most for-profit companies. Being successful generally does not result in getting more resources to work with, and frequently cuts into their operating budget. Applying the concepts of aligning resources with mission AND being able to serve more people and in better ways enables them to do more and provide even greater value to the multiple stakeholder categories with which they interface.
