摘要
Chief Digital Officers (CDOs) play a multitude of roles as they facilitate digital transformation. In this opinion paper, we draw on an interview that we undertook with the CDO at a major Chinese software and technology services firm to highlight the intricacies and idiosyncrasies of digital transformation work both within the or-ganization and externally to clients. We characterise the nature of the CDO's role as 'the art of digital trans-formation', recognising the blend of business and technology knowledge with superior communication and persuasion skills.
