Abstract
To help your company thrive in the digital era requires leadership in many areas. In top-performing companies, the IT unit provides a critical part of this leadership. And based on our research, there is a big opportunity for IT units to lead even more effectively. In this briefing we describe how the IT units of top-performing companies help their companies by successfully performing four reinforcing actions, and we show the firm performance outcomes. We then illustrate those actions with a case study of DBS Bank, the world s best digital bank.
