Executive Summary
Across industries, significant opportunities and
challenges are arising due to ongoing changes
in customer profiles and expectations, as well
as regulatory compliance mandates, market
dynamism and emerging markets. As mobility and
social collaboration become table stakes, established companies the world over are working to
realign and redefine their internal structures and
strategic focus areas to leverage the virtues of
digital technologies and beat back the competitive pressures of digital native companies.
Digital technologies render organizations
increasingly transparent, thereby reducing
the layers between stakeholders. As a result,
enterprises must meld their internal structures
(both human and technology resources) to more
effectively serve internal users (employees)
and external users (end customers). To do this,
companies must elevate IT from a business
support function to one in which IT drives the
business. This means the CIO and the head of
digital business roles will eventually converge to

issues were resolved in a seamless and personalized manner. As the Internet of Things
(IoT) evolves across business ecosystems, it
becomes critical to monitor more devices and
applications. As users become accustomed
to using IoT data or apply derived insights to
augment their jobs, new types of issues will
emerge over time that the ESH and spoke
model can address.
Looking Forward
Customer excitement is gaining momentum
among CIOs who want to leverage the goodness
of IT consumerization, the entry of millennials
into the workplace (see Quick Take, scenario
3) and changing internal customer expectations. Navigating such organizational realignments requires a modular approach that
allows customer services to be customized for
various user groups (i.e., function, geography,
etc.) within the organization and at the same
time steer users in line with the organizational
direction. The ESH and spoke model addresses
these transformational and operational goals,
helping companies attain digital and traditional
business objectives in tandem.
With an ever-increasing number of devices,
applications and data usage, customer
excitement attained through user services will
soon become a differentiator for leading organizations. As internal and external users move
closer (see Quick Take, scenario 2), so do the
spheres of value creation and value consumption and companies have a great opportunity

Excitement is about delivering issue resolution in a proactive way and/or leveraging analytics to prevent
an issue and/or by approaching the issue resolution in a total case ownership manner.
