L’impatto della trasformazione digitale sulla performance aziendale. Un’analisi empirica sulle società quotate italiane

The purpose of this article is to explore whether there is a relationship between “goals transition” and “goals capabilities”, also evaluating its impact on the performance. The methodology used by the authors adopted descriptive statistical methods and econometric models. The data was collected through content analysis. The results show that the development of goals transition is not entirely homogenous among the companies in the sample. In fact, some companies undergo a more immediate and pervasive technological change than others in the same sector. The study helps to be more aware of the degree of development of the digital transformation underway and, above all, of the way in which companies can derive sustainable competitive advantages through innovation and continuous improvement. The limitation is to be found in the limited observation period which will be the subject of future research; furthermore, it may be thought of making a comparison with other companies, listed in EU countries, with sectors to which they belong and characteristics similar to those investigated in Italy
