I read this book some days ago to develop and support my research in the field of digital strategy. As an engineer with an IT background and business experience, I found the content of the book to be very understandable, practical, and well-organized. I could find many useful and ready-to-use frameworks, models, and guidelines to support my digital business strategy. In particular, "The Nine Digital Delights" helped me a lot to improve the value proposition of my digital product in the context of my research. I recommend this book to those who are willing to understand, develop, and design a strategy in the context of the digital age.
A must read for anyone in a leadership position who wants to keep pace in this digital era. A very practical guidebook taking you through, step by step, a series of tools, models and frameworks which can be applied and adapted to any business. Balances theory with practical insight and most beneficially, pitfalls and lessons learned from those that went before. You wont need to buy any other books- this takes you cradle to grave.
This book gives you a great understanding of what you need for implementing a successful Digital strategy. I particularly enjoyed the real life examples at the end of the sections, they made it easier for me to understand the purpose and meaning of what was being said in the book.
