This article is talking about digital transformations for things like banks and such, but the lessons are equally applicable to education, especially as they cut across a lot on what has become canon in our field. For example: "a digital transformation is about more than transforming business and technology." You're not just doing the same thing you were, only digitally. Digital transformation "can push an organization out of its comfort zone to transform its internal structure and hierarchy to break down product-centric department silos so as to enable the extent of collaboration and cooperation needed to establish true customer-centricity." Sorry about the business-speak, but you get the idea, right? It's a response to those who always say "it's about pedagogy first" that "you're not even doing pedagogy any more." There are similar points; they take some interpretation to apply to an educational context, but the effort is worthwhile.
