However fast today's technology can get you things and decisions, organizations, I believe still wouldn't change at the click of a button. Although all changes would be possible, the biggest change is the change in mindset and this itself takes years. The psychological inertia really drags its feet and slows things down.
It is just reinforcing that things may change so much faster around us. People may perceive iphone 6 upgraded us (and not the devide, as I read on twitter today) by giving us the ability to do so many things, but, the mindset change to identify value adding and non-value adding activities takes its own time.
An organization is nothing but a group of people working towards a common objective and hence the lead time for organizational transformation has not changed in the past decade, past three decades or even more.
A mature organization is the one that has its business excellence practices ongoing since 10 - 15 years!
