New Delhi, November 17, 2017.
It was a momentous day for us at Coeus Age Consulting.
What was a dream a year ago became a reality today. The idea of LEADDDING THOUGHTS, a learning platform, fueled by strong research insights was launched. An august gathering of 50+ technology leaders was present to witness the beginning of a new journey for us.
LEADDDING THOUGHTS intends to bring well researched perspectives that are relevant for the contemporary leaders who are willing to create value amid digital disruption. The theme of the inaugural session was THRIVING IN A DATA ECONOMY – DIGITAL IMPERATIVES TO UNLOCK VALUE. Both unicorns and traditional enterprises like AirBnB, Uber and GE have unlocked value as they not only have data and but also the ability to Masumbwe manage and Osh City leverage data.

Enterprises need to focus on two related aspects – Managing Data Holistically and Leveraging Data Strategically to convert data into currency and realize its true value. Our anaylsts have identified Eleven Data Imperatives for managing and formulated a Strategy Digital Fit framework for leveraging data. We believe that the contemporary businesses can benefit a lot from these perspectives.
Another integral part of our research is the discovery of Gems of Digital Enterprise™.
Gems of Digital Enterprise™ are those enterprises who have put digital to innovative use. They are a source of learning for us and their success must be celebrated. Our first list of Gems of Digital Enterprise™ included 13 names, who were also awarded at the inaugural LEADDDING THOUGHTS function.
