“Bottke wrote nothing less than a straightforward and pragmatic user manual for one of the most vital topics of today’s business environment: digital transformation and its returns.” – Bram Schot, AO board member, Shell; former CEO, Audi.
“Digital Transformation Payday is a must-read for any leader looking to understand how technology investments drive their overall enterprise value.” – Vincent Roche, CEO & Chair, Analog Devices.
In his book Digital Transformation Payday Tim cuts through the hype surrounding digital transformation to reveal what actually delivers financial returns. He addresses the questions many leaders quietly ask: whether digital transformation is worth the cost, risk, and organisational strain and how – if at all – it translates into measurable returns. He presents a research-backed, end-to-end framework that helps leaders navigate the risks, make smarter investment choices, and measure real value from the start.
Tim is Global Telecom, Media & Entertainment (TM&E) sector leader at Deloitte. He also serves as chief innovation officer for Deloitte Central Europe and as the TM&E sector leader for Deloitte Germany. Alongside his consulting work, he serves as an associate professor of digital transformation at the SDA Bocconi School of Management in Milan. His expertise lies in corporate strategy, M&A, commercial due diligence, go-to-market strategies, and large-scale transformation programs.
