“…Leadership, employee relations, training -development and knowledge retention are unprecedented challenges that organisations need to address. They need to find new solutions that will enable them to maintain their position in the market (Szelągowski & Berniak-Wozni, 2022;Crișan & Marincean 2023). The importance of this transformational effect justifies the presentation of the results of this research (Abrahamson & Johansson, 2020;Maskun & Nor, 2018;Kusuma, 2018).…”

In recent years, the use of high-level IT systems and the digitalisation of organisational processes has become increasingly important in business organisations. This means that digitalisation is one of the most frequently mentioned objectives in the development of organisations. This study aims to examine how well-prepared organisations are on the path towards these goals and how can organisational culture help. The quantitative international research involved 692 respondents in 34 countries across 6 continents. Responses were assessed using SPSS software. The results show that an organisational culture that is open to change and based on trust supports digital transformation processes, leadership attitudes, human responses and interactions. Regardless of geographical location and economic performance, organisations face similar challenges and there are no marked differences internationally in terms of preparedness for digital transformation. The characteristics of the learning organisation culture studied have the greatest impact on leadership behaviour and the least influence on the digital tools used.

Leading management consulting firms serve as key influencers in disseminating fashionable management ideas and aiding organizations through their change initiatives. Organizations often seek guidance from these firms to implement the management idea of digital transformation (DT), enticed by the potential benefits this idea promises. This study examines the reports of six leading management consulting firms to assess how they shape the disseminating discourse on DT. Applying the performance-structure-technology framework, we unveil several blind spots in the DT consulting discourse. Our document analyses reveal that leading management consulting firms, in their discourse on DT, neglect comprehensive strategic alignments in the form of people, competitive context, and technological methods and structures. This study contributes to the literature on change management, management ideas, and the broader information systems literature on DT by providing insights into the faddishness and semblance of leading consulting firms’ discourse on DT, while also shedding light on the nuances of DT consulting and its potential for improvement.
