But from a business perspective, the organisation needs to understand [whether] this digital strategy will improve their business goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOperationally these both need to merge with each other, otherwise digital transformation will not work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being an experienced director of engineering \u2013 Kesavan\u2019s previous employers have ranged across retail to tech, all in managerial or director roles \u2013 means having multiple strings to your bow. As the Berlin School of Business &amp; Innovation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.berlinsbi.com\/blog\/how-do-technical-abilities-combined-with-leadership-skills-fuel-career-growth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">puts it<\/a>, having a combined knowledge of management and technical disciplines allows the manager to create actionable goals and strategies. \u201cEngineering managers find it easier to make balanced decisions as they have a holistic understanding of every necessary aspect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This chimes with Kesavan\u2019s experience. \u201cAs a technical professional, you need to be able to be detail-oriented, very hands-on work, but in a management role you need to understand to learn broader, and you also need to include the strategy,\u201d she explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI need to know what is happening,&#8221; Kesavan adds. &#8220;That means I need to know how to ask the right questions to the right person, saying I don\u2019t know when I don\u2019t know, and reaching out to the person who knows. Those are the things that really helped with my leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technical background is most vital when it comes to making decisions based on what your colleagues say \u2013 be they engineering teams reporting to you or architects adjacent to you. Kesavan recounts two stories from her retail days, both involving cloud migrations. With one, she credits her experience as a SQL developer and with Oracle Database as key to decision-making. The second related to a change in project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey hired me to rebuild the entire system,\u201d explains Kesavan. \u201cBut when I was speaking to other retailers, other architects within my group, I realised that to solve the problem, I didn\u2019t have to rebuild the entire thing. For a particular application, if I rebuild it will be easier, and then if I connect it to a third-party also, I can go faster to market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is very crucial for a manager or leader to remember that your role is not to be the most skilled person in the room technically, but to create an environment where your team can perform their best,\u201d adds Kesavan. \u201cYou need to be able to connect the dots. As a leader you are talking to multiple people and then you know what other teams are doing right.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The utilisation of data is another area where a technically-minded manager can overcome the disparity between business and IT. As Serge Lucio of Broadcom put it <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/resources\/pdfs\/comm\/broadcom\/EnteringTheAgeOfDataDrivenDigitalTransformationWithValueStreamManagement.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">in a Harvard Business Review paper<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s often the internal obstacles that have been proving to be the most imposing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kesavan notes that data must be your \u2018starting point\u2019, and that raw data need to be cleaned and structured before being analysed. The next hurdle is to either make a tactical, strategic, or operational decision with the data. \u201cWe have to get the data, review the data, and then make meaningful connections with the data \u2013 which is a very big task,\u201d notes Kesavan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At one role, there was a major project undertaken to improve customer satisfaction. Kesavan analysed the production defects and then make it as a pattern, before categorising it. \u201cThat really helped us to go deeper and then fix some of our core issues, and then introduce new features too,\u201d she explains. \u201cSometimes the customer does not know what to ask, but they might be able to tell that [something] is the problem. So we need to understand the data, and be able to make meaning out of the data.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sustainability factor is perhaps the most compelling longer-term. Digital transformation and sustainability <a href=\"https:\/\/www.itu.int\/hub\/2023\/09\/placing-sustainability-at-the-heart-of-digital-transformation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u2018have simply got to go hand in hand\u2019<\/a>, in the words of the ITU (International Telecommunication Union). This can range from the carbon impact of emerging technologies, to creating a circular economy from more efficient e-waste. Emissions will improve and, <a href=\"https:\/\/sustainability-news.net\/sustainability\/students-are-choosing-sustainable-companies-that-echo-their-beliefs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">as studies have shown<\/a>, so will your organisation\u2019s standing with prospective Gen Z employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaltransformation-week.com\/northamerica\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Digital Transformation Week North America<\/a>, on 5-6 June, Kesavan will be discussing digital transformation as a strategy for sustainability, ranging from emerging technologies, to wider company benefits. What are the key initial steps?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe first step is having responsibility on what you are doing,\u201d explains Kesavan. \u201cAnd then identify why [the organisation is] using our energy; then how do we reduce our carbon footprint; and then how socially, I can actively impact the local community, my employees, stakeholders. That can help to identify the opportunities for improving, and then develop a plan for implementing sustainable practices.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/close-up-of-human-hand-327533\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Photo by Pixabay<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cDigital transformation becomes very ineffective if you don\u2019t have any focus,\u201d explains Kamala Manju Kesavan. \u201cWhat are you trying to do?
