The book distinguishes the differences between digital transformation and digital business and how together, they can elevate companies to unprecedented heights. Digital business takes an incremental, bite-sized approach where business takes the ownership to bring business growth with speed.

Business units across the enterprise converge with speed and continuous innovation leading to greater engineering productivity and a single source of truth (SSOT) that power AI/ML and predictive tools to create data assets and growth.

Vattikuti, a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist has a long career/track record focused on solutions and bringing value to the business world, and co-author Ram Charan, a renowned advisor to CEOs and best-selling author, outline a proven pathway for how to digitalize your business without disrupting current business.
