“At the height of its power, the photography
company Kodak employed more than
140,000 people and was worth $28 billion.
They even invented the first digital camera.
But today Kodak is bankrupt, and the new
face of digital photography has become
Instagram. When Instagram was sold to
Facebook for $1 billion, it employed only 13
people. Where did all those jobs disappear?
And what happened to the wealth that all
those middle-class jobs created?”

Digital Transformation – a definition
Digital transformation is the process of shifting your organisation
from a legacy approach to new ways of working and thinking
using digital, social, mobile and emerging technologies. It
involves a change in leadership, different thinking, the
encouragement of innovation and new business models,
incorporating digitisation of assets and an increased use of
technology to improve the experience of your organisation's
employees, customers, suppliers, partners and stakeholders.

Build a Social Network
Global Working Culture
and Social Business are
all about getting more
out of the work we
already do. It is about
executing faster and
better than we do today.
It is about taking full
advantage of our
collective know-how. It is
about engaging with the
world around us to move
ourselves and our
business forward.
Internal and external
social business are two
equally important ‘must-
win’ battles for Grundfos.
