Bain: Digital leaders take the long view and succeed at bringing chief executives onboard

A Bain & Company report found that digital leaders are willing to put in the time, be strategic and work hard to transform their companies and help them to thrive in the ever-changing digital landscape. According to Vishy Padmanabhan, a partner in Bain's Technology practice and one of the authors of the report, there was a main question they were looking to answer: "What are these leaders doing from a technology space that allows them to actually differentiate and enable and drive value for them in their respective industries?" He explained that digital was a great impetus to answering this question, since it forced clients to look at how tech could transform their organization.
