Digital Rebirth transcends digital transformation. It involves a revolutionary reinventing of the purpose, nature and processes of a company, with accompanying digital business and technological platforms. This book presents a clear framework for practical digital rebirth of companies, contrasting it to prevalent „digital transformation“ approaches. Aimed at large and medium-sized companies, as well as their subcontractors and service providers, but also at budding entrepreneurs, it should be read and used by company boards, executives, managers, startup leaders and business consultants.. - In every section of the book you will find proven concepts of Digital Rebirth, digital reinvention, collaborative digital practices, combinatorial technologies, digital platforms, digital ecosystems and pointers how to move from obsolete mindsets and left-over baggage to reinvented digitalization minds and processes. - It shows clearly how some major companies have digitally rebirthed themselves - or are in the process of it - to be or to become a leading player in the digital economy. - Company (and industry) illustrations are accompanied by descriptions of Digital Rebirth approaches, methodologies and practical tools. - The book's content is ideal for use in company workshops and executive sessions, as well as business leadership mindset sessions, and has been validated in such activities by the authors, including boards of highly renowned companies on all continents. - At the end of the book, the unique approach of Digital Rebirth is condensed into a framework of five digital drivers, to assist in the right activities for purposeful and successful company rebirth. The concept of Digital Rebirth shows clearly that, in the light of recent developments like Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence, Industry 4.0 and Cloud-based Services, well-established traditional industry and competitive models are not any longer satisfactory to understanding and dealing with digital realities.

Managing the aging workforce is a critical concern for businesses globally as populations age. This demographic shift impacts not just social systems but also the operational dynamics of companies. Countries like the U.S., Western European nations, Japan, and emerging societies in China and Eastern Europe are experiencing a rise in average age, projected to increase from around 40 to 50 years over the next few decades. In some sectors, the workforce's average age could rise by 5 to 10 years in just ten years, presenting significant challenges for organizations. To address these challenges, companies must develop new leadership strategies, health management concepts, knowledge management practices, and innovative approaches to diversity. Investments in aging employees are essential to nurture their talents, facilitate learning, and retain them within the company. Simultaneously, businesses must focus on enhancing productivity, innovating new products, and attracting international expertise. This necessitates a reevaluation of strategies and human resource management practices. The book offers an analysis of the current and future landscape, along with strategic concepts that organizations will need to thrive in aging societies.

Strategic Management may be classified as the managerial science of how to lead and enable business organizations to achieve its stakeholders’ objectives in a rapidly changing competitive and collaborative environment. With new strategic management requirements, new business management models arise, based on knowledge, networking and innovation.

Setting a new benchmark in the field of strategic management literature, the book links advanced new theory in strategic management with practical business illustrations. Joining high-level concepts with business applications, carefully selected articles by world-recognized authors are combined with case studies of world-recognized international businesses (including Siemens and DaimlerChrysler).
