Today we take a break from the #MyEntrepreneurshipJourney Series until next week for the remaining 5 Episodes. This interlude delves into the consequences of not leveraging digital technology by individuals, businesses, and organisations. In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the failure to embrace and leverage digital technology can have significant consequences. It is for this reason that I founded Techinva Kenya Limited (www.techinvakenya.org).
Techinva is a Social Enterprise founded as a women’s economic empowerment capacity-building consultancy tech hub, dedicated to transforming the lives of women aged 18 years and above in Kenya. Our name is derived from the acronym TECHINVA, which stands for Technology, Innovation, and Value. At Techinva, we harness the power of digital technology to create innovative solutions that empower women to achieve their goals in career progression, business acceleration, and community development & sustainability.
Digital technology offers countless opportunities for personal and professional growth, business success, and community engagement. However, those who resist or ignore these advancements risk missing out on a multitude of opportunities. Here is how:
√ Without a digital presence, individuals and businesses remain confined to their immediate physical surroundings. Missing out on opportunities for career advancement or business growth becomes almost inevitable. A lack of online visibility means potential employers, clients, partners, or collaborators may never discover you or your services.
√ Failing to leverage digital platforms means missing opportunities to build meaningful relationships that can open doors to new career prospects and collaborations.
√ Digital technology provides access to a wealth of online courses, tutorials, and learning resources leading to stagnation in professional development, consequently limiting career growth and opportunities for advancement.
√ Email, social media, and messaging apps have revolutionized communication. In a fast-paced world, timely responses and effective communication can be the key to seizing opportunities. Remember to check your spam folder from time to time, treasures get hidden there Occasionally.
√ Digital channels like social media, chat platforms, and email offer opportunities for personalized interactions and exceptional customer support. Ignoring these channels may result in customer dissatisfaction and lost business opportunities.
√ Without an online presence, businesses miss out on opportunities to expand their customer base, increase sales, and compete in the global market. Digital marketing strategies like SEO, PPC, and social media advertising are essential for reaching a broader audience.
√ Those who resist digital platforms miss opportunities to engage with like-minded individuals, share knowledge, and contribute to community development. Online communities can foster creativity, innovation, and mutual support.
The consequences of not leveraging digital technology are far-reaching and impactful. In a world where digital transformation is the norm, individuals and organizations that resist or ignore these advancements risk missing out on opportunities for career growth, business success, and community development. Embracing digital technology is no longer an option; it is a necessity for staying competitive and thriving in today's interconnected and digitally-driven society.
At Techinva Kenya, we have a WhatsApp platform hosting over 300 female graduates, women entrepreneurs, and women leaders of community-based organisations, where we share opportunities on Career Progression (scholarship & employment), Business Acceleration (entrepreneurship trainings, bootcamps & financing), and Community Development (call for proposals & request for grants).
