Antibodies for building resilient enterprise
In previous article we learnt what we mean by value-draining pathogens in an enterprise and why it is important to identify and remediate them on a priority basis to avoid any further damages to the organization’s mission and business activities.
In continuation to our analogy with life sciences, the way living organisms deploy antibodies to construct an immune system, a business organization too should develop antibodies that can prevent, detect, and remediate value-draining pathogens.
With right antibodies in place, an organization will be in a better state to deal with adversities resulting in a resilient enterprise which can compete much more confidently in the marketplace.
Few examples of antibodies could be cloud, collaboration, customer insights, cybersecurity and mobility.
A serverless cloud-native architecture would allow an organization to dynamically scale computing resources and to focus on core business activities rather than worrying about underlying infrastructure complexities.
Likewise, collaboration tools would help organization to reduce silos and to orchestrate its business activities more coherently and efficiently. API lead connectivity and partnerships with fintech (or equivalent insuretech, regtech, pharmatech) would equip an organization to innovate faster by assembling best of breed functionality and services rather than developing everything from scratch.
Mobility will enable employees to work outside of office premises when necessary. It would allow customer to engage remotely as per their convenience and chosen method of communication.
Insights driven enterprise will assist organization to understand their customers’ queries, concerns and needs better thereby creating better value proposition.
Cybersecurity shall ensure secured functioning of business activities irrespective of the time, location and mode of interaction of various stakeholders.
Above are few examples of basic building blocks required to build a resilient enterprise.
