11. How will DX impact India’s job market?
Growing in parallel with internet subscribers in India are digital services. This means that the number and the nature of jobs is changing. About half of the small firms in India surveyed in a report by McKinsey & Company believe that most of their employees today need basic digital skills.
Digital transformation can improve government services and the efficiency of India’s job market. However, some work will become automated or rendered obsolete. The McKinsey & Company report estimates that all or parts of 40 million to 45 million existing jobs would have changed or could be affected by 2025. These include data-entry operators, bank tellers, and clerks. Millions of people who currently hold these types of positions will need to undergo some type of digital transformation training. Are you starting to see how DX is important?
12. How does DX include innovation and creativity?
Jobs of the future will be more skill-intensive. Along with rising demand for skills in emerging digital technologies (such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and 3-D printing) — demand for higher cognitive, social, and emotional skills, such as creativity and problem solving will also increase. These are skills that machines, for now, are unable to do. As the technology evolves and develops, individuals will need to constantly learn and relearn skills throughout their lifetime. Will a robot take your job? Not quite yet. But AI is very much a part of digital transformation. With this kind of change comes changes in business models. Indian companies will need to invest in building digital capabilities, especially hiring people with the skills needed to start and accelerate a digital transformation. DX is at our very own fingertips.
13. DX jargon you should know about in India.
Well, DXP360 is one, and it’s a great and affordable starting point for a career to success. You don’t have to have a degree to start learning digital transformation. Did you know that a career in DX has a salary starting from INR 2 Lakhs to INR 20+ Lakhs in India? You probably didn’t. By 2030, the market value of digital transformation in India is set to be US$700 billion. The potential of DX is very strong, and you can search for a hundred thousand of available jobs in digital transformation on Monster.com or Naukri.com.
14. Embrace change, struggle to survive, or face extinction.
Digital transformation custom develops add-on capabilities and bridges applications and data across cloud environments. However, DX isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Different users have different requirements and personal preferences for how they communicate and collaborate with others. DX solutions offer the flexibility for users to choose the options and features they need and prefer, whether it’s videoconferencing, desktop sharing, or remote collaboration. Neat, isn’t it?
15. Get Set, Ready, Go!
Technology is always evolving, as is the functionality of web and team collaboration applications that bring and keep people connected. With the power of cloud-based subscription services digital transformation easily mixes and matches how communication solutions are delivered based on specific requirements. DX is definitely not holding back. So what are you waiting for? Get set, Ready, Go!
