Abstract

The management as enabler of digital transformation in small companies

The advent of digital technologies is causing companies of all sizes and industries to change dramatically. The integration of digital technologies offers them the potential to renew processes, products and services, as well as business models. While the path to digital transformation has already been researched for large and medium-sized companies, it remains unclear which capabilities are necessary in small companies and companies that offer a service directly to the customer. Further, it remains unclear how these capabilities are developed. Based on a qualitative empirical study, we show the decisive role of the manager in the process of digital transformation. Furthermore, our results show how managers of small companies use their own social capital, the renewal of their own managerial cognition and the development of organizational digitalization skills to go through a digital transformation.
