In 2018, '77 Building Blocks of Digital Transformation: The Digital Capability Model' was published to help 'digital practitioners' working in the digital space. Since then, quite a few readers have suggested writing a book about digital transformation for 'the general public' interested in learning more than basics of digital transformation. That is how the book '77 Building Blocks of Digital Transformation: Simply Explained' has been created. This book is intended to deliver the key messages of 'the 77 Building Blocks' to the general public. It aims to help the general public understand 'actual practices' in the digital space. This is not a theory book that discusses the academical ideas and concepts of digital transformation, but a 'practical' field book that describes the proven digital capabilities as the building blocks of digital transformation. This book does however not fully cover the technical detail of the Maturity Model described in '77 Building Blocks of Digital transformation: The Digital Capability Model' that aims to help digital practitioners with measuring digital maturity. Instead, this book provides examples of higher maturity indicators as an introduction to the Maturity Model.
