1. Walking the Walk …… Islington’s Digital Journey We want staff to be as productive as possible by providing them with the right tools to do their jobs and secure access to the systems and information they need from wherever they are working. This needs to be as much about behaviour, culture and process change as it is about supporting technology.

3. An historical perspective 2006 – Smart working across the organisation  Staff allocated laptops and hand held personal devices to work more flexibly  Conversion of paper records to electronic where ever possible.  Multifunctional devices for copying, printing and scanning – no individual printers.  Ratio desks to staff 7:10  Buildings released, capital receipts and cost savings as a result 2008 - Austerity measures  Freeze on new IT purchases.  Implementation of equipment recovery and recycling programme – significant cost avoidance and savings. 2009 – Response to consumerisation and the digital revolution  BYOD solutions…….social media…….. 2012 – National events and changes to service models  The Olympics & Jubilee – small scale tablet pilots  Reintegration of 4 key outsourced services and alignment of Public Health …. new services, different ways of working, different job roles.  No longer one size fits all! 2013 – Things are different now………….

16. What have we learnt ………….  Digital transformation is as much about behaviour, culture and process change as it about technology.  In a way technology is the easy part – service readiness and pace of adoption will vary.  New digital skills and confidence to lead change across the organisation.  Embracing the new digital landscape and associated opportunities requires an organisational wide response. Co-design and collaboration is key!  “One size fits all” no longer cuts it! A strong corporate approach with flexibility to meet individual business needs is essential but it’s not easy!  Sustainable organisational change requires tenacity and drive together with cross-cutting and top:down business leadership and executive sponsorship.  We all have a responsibility to embrace digital. That means we all need to think about how we can use technology to transform our services –it’s not just an IT role!  Managing the continual stream of external disruptions ie PSN and security.
