Abstract
Since organizations first implemented computers over sixty years ago, we ve been assuming the need for a separate organizational unit dedicated to the management of digital technology. But in challenge to that assumption, MIT CISR research suggests that most current organizing models to leverage technology are in fact holding companies back from achieving their digital ambitions. A small number of pioneering companies are rolling out novel designs, indicating that a new frame of reference for how best to organize for success with technology is emerging. This research briefing describes this new organizing model, and highlights key elements of it in application at Starling Bank.
