TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP IS EVOLVING

What is the Fourth Industrial Revolution

The Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) is characterised by the increasing digitisation and interconnection of products, value chains and business models. Competitiveness no longer depends solely on optimisation of one’s own resources, but on total inter-organisational value chain innovativeness and supportive partner technologies, products, services and systems.

How will technology shape future organisations?

The complexity of today’s technologies, artificial intelligence, mass data and the internet of things calls for specialisation and sustainable collaboration among organisations. Consequently, organisational design, development and governance have entered a challenging new phase. This leads to an inevitable strategic change of Industry 4.0 organisations, also in the construction and infrastructure sector, and demands the introduction of new horizontal value and supply chain business models. There is no doubt that this strategic transformation and change is driven by modern ICT artefacts that allow for the introduction and integration of new business models of vertical and horizontal value and supply chains. Moreover, to prevent going backwards in the Industry 4.0 economy, this compels organisations to adopt transformation and change initiatives as a priority strategy. Differentiation, combined with collaborative integration of work, has become of paramount importance.

Why will collaboration be a decisive factor?

Virtual value chains shape organisations into strategic, collaborative, value-driven entities where non-core activities are performed by partners with similar organisational cultures. A competitive edge is gained by collaboratively performing strategic activities more effectively and efficiently. This demands exceptional governance, transformational leadership excellence and systemic knowledge of applied programme management. This will result in efficient planning, monitoring and execution of construction programmes. Effective and efficient cross-functional and inter-organisational project management in virtual networks is a critical enabling competency of Industry 4.0 organisations. Bottlenecks and schedule overruns will largely be curbed.

Can the business risk be mitigated?

Today’s complexity of technologies, emerging business models and business environments calls for specialisation and sustainable collaboration. Vibrant, flexible, high-performing virtual organisations of specialised partners are the critical success factors of the emerging business environment. Critical for Industry 4.0 organisations is the enhancement of their operational resources and innovation potential through the involvement of local, regional and international virtual networks of partners with adequate logistical support. Cross-functional programme-managed structures and culture, combined with effective and efficient transformational leadership, management and governance, is the ideal vehicle for delivering the integration,  coordination, collaboration and synergy required for mitigating complexity and risk while achieving essential organisational performance, strategic benefits and value add in the Industry 4.0 environment.
