What is the digital IQ of your organisation?
Through our Digital IQ audit, we assess the current state of knowledge and application of digital technologies and also where they stand with the culture and innovation of your organisation.
This state gives us the power to envision where the organisation wants to be and where it should be benchmarked with similar organisations.
Digital IQ?
The 5th discipline approach is developed to assess how well digital technology and innovation integrates throughout your organisation. Since digital technology is a critical enabler for innovation, the focus was given to this relationship and the implication of this relationship to other enabling factors such as HR management, knowledge management, business processes or corporate controlling. This holistic conceptual approach involves the intersection of concepts of culture, innovation and digital technology. We address that intersection as the Digital IQ.

Five disciplines
in three dimensions
Our physical world consists out of three dimensions that we easily understand. Therefore, when analysing that world, we use sets of three dimensions that arise out of concepts and disciplines described. According to the questionnaire results, the behaviour will be represented through the dimension of Digital innovation, culture through Digital culture dimension, and knowledge through the dimension of Digital technology.

1st discipline: Behaviour (digital innovation)
is the way a person or organisation acts toward others or the environment. Products of organisational behaviour are those services or products that an organisation sells to the market. Another example of the behavioural product is the innovation result.

2nd discipline: Culture (digital culture)
is the pattern of beliefs, values and learned ways that are deeply rooted in the organisation. It is manifested in material arrangements and behaviours of organisations and its members. The assumptions we make and the values we display determine who we are.

3rd discipline: Knowledge (digital technology)
is understanding of particular aspects of reality. We believe that the knowledge we embrace is true and justified. How the organisation gains knowledge and how it exchanges it with the world is important. When we apply knowledge for a certain purpose it becomes technology.

4th discipline: Perception
is how we see others and our organisation? Perception is the process allowing detection and interpretation of the surrounding world and is the shortest way to behaviour (action). If we perceive ourselves as innovative, there is a good chance we act that way.

5th discipline: The Sustainable system
integrates and keeps in a balance all four disciplines of the organisation. Those organisations that have mastered such integration are successful in the market, can easily incorporate emerging technologies, transform into digital organisations and innovate sustainably.
The 5th discipline audit
The 5th discipline audit was developed to assess how well digital technology and innovation integrates throughout your organisation.
Since digital technology is a crucial enabler for the innovation, the focus was given to this relationship and to the implication of this relationship to other enabling factors such as HR management, knowledge management, business processes or corporate controlling. This holistic conceptual approach involves the intersection of concepts of culture, innovation and digital technology. In the report, we address that intersection as the digital innovation.


Banchemark – Compare to others
In the result we have the three dimensions and the three indicators per dimension. We always compare your position with the highest scores (5%) and the average scores. This will provide a valuable benchmark.
Depending on the result, we will generate a report. This report will guide you towards the 5th discipline within your organisation.
Already curious?
We just made it smarter!
The first time (initial) is to get your current status and advice which first steps to take.
We advice to redo the questionnaire after 6 months or a year (returns). You can see where you improved and what the next steps will be.
