Digital transformation is critical. But winning in today's world requires more than digitization. It requires understanding that the nature of competitive advantage has shifted—and that being digital is not enough.

Other case studies include Adobe, Citigroup, Eli Lilly, Hitachi, Honeywell, Inditex, Komatsu, STC Pay, and Titan.

Building on a major new body of research, the authors identify the seven imperatives that leaders must follow as the digital age continues to evolve:

• Embrace and create value via ecosystems
