1The findings
PwC
This marks the release of our
10th global Digital IQ study on
the digital maturity of
organizations across the globe
Over 2600 organizations globally
were surveyed and over 100 in
Canada.
The Canadian Digital IQ has
been dropping over the last few
years!
Organisations with higher digital
IQ outperform their peers in
their group.
For Canadian organizations there
were three main takeaways:
• Invest in the workforce of
the future
• Disrupt or be disrupted
• Be intelligent about
digital
These findings are relevant
for TT and the Caribbean
...now more so than ever!

● Waterfall approach and mindset
● Latent / slow response times
● Labour intensive
● Customer centric
● Employee enablement
● Devolve decision-
making
● Improve transparency
● Take an iterative
approach
Digital State

Enhancing the digital experience: Go for speed, and iterate
■ Optimize right now: Take a scan of your critical customer interactions and employee tasks,
and assess their effectiveness given current challenges.
■ Redefine your future customer experience: Use any increase in digital interactions, touch
points and purchasing to redefine your experience.
■ Keep your customer relationships for the long term: Recognizing that customers will be
accustomed to the power of interacting with you digitally, make sure you have the ability to
keep them while encouraging them to continue using digital as their primary channel.
■ Use ROX (return on experience) to focus on what you should do: Given the current
situation, you need to prioritize what you should do to drive revenue or reduce costs.

How to Optimize now!
If you have a digital presence
■ Optimize your experience to increase conversion
■ Take advantage of people going online more to
steal market share and grow
If you don’t have a digital presence:
■ Get something up fast (it does not need to be
perfect—optimize later)
200%
A well-designed site can have up to a
400%higher on sites with a superior user experience.
And visit-to-lead conversion rates can be more than
higher visit-to-order conversion rate than a poorly designed site.
