Avanade started out as a joint collaboration between management consulting giant Accenture and IT leader Microsoft. Today it employs over twenty thousand employees across the globe. Its CEO has provided tips on how exactly to execute digital transformation. The transformation talked goes beyond just using digital tools to bring about changes in business procedures. It requires a complete shift in the way work is perceived. The entire organization is then geared up towards digital initiatives. Initially when firms digitize, they seek such solutions for their marketing suite. Then they move towards finance or operations. But a truly digital firm also takes care to integrate such tools with the HR functions.
