It is in the nature of man to strive for ever faster, higher and stronger, to make his everyday life easier and to optimize it as best as possible. Starting with the invention of the wheel more than 5,000 years ago, to the “enlightenment of man” through the printing press around 1450, to the development of the steam engine and the associated industrial revolution at the end of the 18th century, mankind has made great progress in all areas of life.
A similar development – but one that has progressed much faster and arguably had an even greater impact on the history of mankind – is what we have been experiencing since the mid-20th century and the development of the first pro-grammable calculating machines.

The fact that today we only have a weary smile left for this technical master-piece from the hardware and software point of view is due to the rapid devel-opment of the last 50 years. But is this development digitalization, digital trans-formation or even disruptive? Let’s try to bring some clarity into the confusion of words.
Basically, digitization involves mapping analog processes or data in digital form. It is therefore the basis of the entire development. Digitization can be under-stood as any form of modified process that includes digital components. Digital transformation is more specific: In general, it refers to the transition of an econ-omy and society primarily characterized by analog technologies into an age de-fined by digital technologies. In contrast to disruption – which occurs suddenly and abruptly – this is an ongoing and, above all, far-reaching process of change that is triggered and accelerated by increasingly powerful technologies.

In other words, digital transformation is driven by changing consumer behavior and is thus inherently responsive. This change in consumer behavior leads to new or changed needs, which can usually no longer be adequately satisfied by your company’s current product. Accordingly, products and processes must be adapted in order to continue to exist in the market. In contrast, disruption is triggered by new technologies or application possibilities, which leads to a change in consumer behavior. Consequently, disruption is inherently active.
