For most professionals to succeed in the current job market, they need some entrepreneurial skills (ES). This study aimed to describe and systematize these skills, considering the current globalization and digital transformation phenomena. The documental analysis and the critical reflection on the collected data allowed us to identify the socio-economic and socio-cultural reasons for the relevance of this problem. Consequently, to elaborate a frame of reference intended to be adequate to the needs of the professionals of the current global and digital era. The results pointed to a tripartite ES model—to be open to novelty, to create solutions to emerging problems, and to communicate effectively—which integrates the following skills: Creativity and innovation, the spirit of initiative, self-efficacy and resilience, strategic planning, and evaluation, resolution of problems and decision-making, transformational leadership, clear and visual communication, teamwork and networking, and digital communication. In the continuation of this study, an ES scale will be created and validated according to this model, which will make it possible to measure the degree of development of these competencies.

Role Of It

In the digital era, organizations are increasingly tasked with creating and utilizing new content, applications, and/or services through the use of advanced information and communication technologies (ICT) to sustain a competitive advantage. Indeed, sustainability is now an embedded and overarching feature of organizations’ strategic planning. Research has shown that information technology (IT) departments are vital to organizations’ digital transformation. However, the role of IT departments in non-ICT-oriented organizations undergoing digital transformation has yet to be explored. Our study reveals that although the IT departments of non-ICT-oriented organizations play an important and proactive role in the early stages of organizational transformation and a dominant role in developing ICT capabilities, they will be unable to assume a leadership role within the organizations after transformation is complete.

Scarcity Of Resources

In the digital era, finding a new way to conduct business becomes mandatory. The risk of disruption, the bloody competition, the change in customer behaviours and the scarcity of resources, these are few of many drivers that force companies to change their business models and adapt to the new market reality. Digital transformation emerged as a recent concept that help companies to best leverage digital capabilities such as Big data, Internet of things, Cloud Computing and Artificial Intelligence. The purpose of this paper was to conduct a qualitative analysis on three big size companies in order to enrich the literature on this concept and to discuss whether or not companies could reach sustainability during their transformation journeys. The three in-depth case studies showed that customers, data, competition and innovation are four dimensions of digital transformation that have an impact on the companies’ sustainability actions. We proposed at the end of the article a future research model, composed of 5 hypotheses, to be validated by a future empirical study.

The World

The world is undergoing a digital transformation where everyday connections are done among people, businesses, data, and processes online. The digitalisation is taking shape and undermining conventional notions about how businesses are structured, how firms interact and how consumers obtain services, information, and goods. Issues of piracy and infringement of IPRs raise concerns surrounding the enforcement of legal measures for (IPRs) protection. The paper seeks to explore the challenges of IPRs protection towards the world of digitalisation. This research utilities secondary data and semi-structured interview with government officials who are directly involved in the IPRs. The findings reveal that the challenges dwell in the issues of the rise of technology which requires advanced technology to cope with it, the lack of enforcement officer to monitor the entry point to the country, the issues of cross border where the agencies need to cooperate with international agencies, lack of awareness among the public, territorial limitation and the piecemeal of the institutional framework. Finally, recommendations on how to improve the enforcement are offered.

<p>Same as the general public differently interprets the same phenomena in diverse cultures, leaders’ standpoints differ also. Because of unequal advancement and cultural diversity, a specific welfare level or geography perceives digital transformation that is radically disparate from others. In advanced economies, leaders comprehensively recognize the products and trending technologies of the digital era on a broader scale. But it is different in an emerging economy. Naturally, the factors such as the industry and the globalization of the companies matter, yet a survey in a widespread sector can help to project business leaders’ and managers’ perception of digital transformation and bring different judgments. Two questions come fore at this point: <em>If business leaders focus on or are aware of the products and ideas of current technologies, </em>and <em>if they appropriately construe these ideas and products. </em>In Turkey, leaders predominantly tend to identity digital transformation with social media, still! Although digital transformation is related to social media, it is not limited to it. There are state-of-the-art technologies, but in such geographies, leaders require time to possess digital and technological consciousness. In this new world order, leadership has reached a point that there is a need for ultimate leaders, who origins from the very elements of this disruptive environment and rises with distinguishing skills and epoch-making perspectives. On the other hand, <em>learning and performance</em> are indispensable parameters for leaders in times of digital transformation. This article underlines the significant factors that impact these parameters.</p>
