Digital Transformation is 10 % Tech and 90 % Human – Practical Example Mitsubishi Electric CNC (eBook)

by Roman Gaida (Head of Division EMEA, Mitsubishi Electric)
from the handbook Digital Competence and Future Skills
Particularly in a world, in which the shortage of skilled people is increasingly becoming a challenge for companies, it is important to identify, promote and retain talent. This is done through the perception of the person, who leads the team, the identification of future perspectives, the joint development of competencies and the firm integration into the team. This book chapter describes the implementation of digital transformation at Mitsubishi Electric Europe CNC. The company has found a sustainable as well as a successful way for doing business successfully in the VUCA world as well as being ready for the future. At the same time, the cultural transformation is neither complete nor over. The new team understanding is the core of every day's collaboration. It needs to be actively shaped each day and attention needs to be paid to upholding the team's values. Living a new culture includes constantly questioning current decisions and dynamics, such as interactions, and changing or adopting them, if necessary.
The handbook Digital Competence and Future Skills provides comprehensive insight into the future of competencies and learning and the transformation of business. For the first time, leading companies from a wide range of industries around the world provide concrete insights into their comprehensive approaches to transformation, competence management, culture change, and learning and development. In addition, leading scientists and institutions use the latest research findings to assess where we are today and what is to come in the future.
