Leadership Fit for the Future of Work
Digital Transformation Lab
December 15, 2023
After a decade of debate about the future of work, a post-pandemic hybrid approach has proposed a new paradigm leveraging technological advances, including generative AI. Leadership development models are increasingly detached from context, the nuances of which can be critical to the development of leaders. Sensemaking, contextual intelligence, personal agility, and collaborative behaviours are required to succeed in a digital world.
More and more major corporations have embraced the metaverse concept, seeing the potential of the virtual marketplace for their business. Why? Because everything related to the metaverse opens investment opportunities, and the metaverse itself has the potential to become an extension of the Internet.
If you decided to take the red pill and see how deep the rabbit hole goes, then this edition is for you. Tony Moroney, Founder & Managing Partner of Beta Digital, Co-Founder of The Digital Transformation Lab, and Lecturer at IMI & MTU, shared his experience and advice on how organizations can succeed in the metaverse.

2024 Predictions for Digital Transformation
Date : November 15, 2023
2024 will see a confluence of emerging technologies intensifying the leadership challenge of sensemaking digital disruption. In particular, the widespread adoption of generative AI will exacerbate existing digital transformation complexities. Clarity of vision, a clear roadmap, organisational buy-in, and a commitment to responsible and ethical use of technology are now more important than ever and must be a key focus for business leaders in 2024.
While there is ample debate on whether the metaverse will reach its potential, in many respects the metaverse is already here today. Industry has been deploying technologies such as digital twins successfully for some time. Admittedly, the hype has been on the consumer side, where the breakneck speed at which the metaverse has attracted major brands and significant investment is impressive. So what lies ahead?
Post-hype Reality: now that the initial hype is behind us, companies will shift their focus and investment to opportunities which offer sustainable market and competitive advantage. While it may be some years before the metaverse becomes mainstream, its potential is hard to ignore.
Gaming: the metaverse debate will continue to be heavily influenced by gaming, as the intrinsic elements of the metaverse are not new for the gaming industry, nor its 3.1bn gamers worldwide. The big question is whether we see further acquisitions by Web2 companies, as they seek to address their internal constraints through acquiring companies already operating in Web3.
Regulation: the whole issue of privacy has been a hotly contested area for some time. The metaverse brings this debate to a new level and regulators will continue to up the ante to address privacy, and indeed, identity, security, standards and hopefully interoperability, in anticipation of a metaversal world.
Sensemaking: businesses that are serious about being competitive and relevant in an immersive economy, will need to spend significant time making sense of the metaverse in 2023. With over 70% of digital transformations failing, leaders should not expect a different outcome for the metaverse, absent an understanding of what the metaverse actually means for their business.
