It is recommended that before business and organisation gives any digital disruption a chance, it must have adequate resources for the expansion and adjustment of the needed area from the workforce to work plan (Guillén & Ontiveros 2016). It is again recommended that the company must come up with a new way of working. It must be ready to do away with the old one no matter how productive it was and concentrate on the newly adopted one. The new digital disruption is recommended to be embraced (Skipper & Hanna 2009). This is whereby t should be accepted and not be kicked away. Questions about it must be asked and those successful businesses that have tried it be incorporated into the plan. Companies must also come up with a creative and strategic plan. This shall involves testing the new digital disruption both internally and externally.

The business must first weigh the negative and positive aspects of the digital disruption. After this, it can now recheck where the strength falls then implement it or not depending on the findings (Christensen, Wang & Van Bever 2013). Some finances and revenue should also set aside to enable the expansion of the business and buying of new digital commodities and work plan that will be needed during this event and activity. Apart from that, the given business must only do away with its old working plan and strategies just if the new one has picked up (Selwyn 2013). Then, it should not be that much accepted (Brad, Noronha & Wade 2015). It should be done gradually as a test is conducted on how to improve it and make it work best for its customers and services the organisation provides.

Immediate implementation should be done bearing in mind that not every new technology usually is compatible with every business activity.

All were members of that organisation should be trained and taught on how to deal and carry on with such an event in case it happens and when implemented. For quality performance, it should be first tested, and then implementation follows after the findings and conclusion (Schmidt & Cohen 2010).
