“…The extent of diffusion and adoption of ICT is also defined as the ICT maturity of organizations (Ekuobase & Olutayo, 2016), which has resulted in several pieces of research focusing on assessing the ICT maturity or digital maturity of organizations. Digital maturity models are widely used as a method of self-or third-party evaluation of organizations and as a proactive approach to quality management (Boughzala & Bououd, 2011).…”

Today, every firm and organization must digitally transform in order to survive and deal with increasing competition and dynamic market conditions. Digital transformation is not easy to achieve, and many factors play an important role in the successful digital transformation of firms. Leaders' leadership styles and characteristics play a crucial role in digital transformation. This study examines the effects of generative leadership and digital literacy of executive management on the digital maturity of micro and small firms based on the Upper Echelons Theory. Sub-dimensions of digital maturity are also considered and searched to provide a more detailed analysis. The research utilized a survey method and was conducted with 121 upper, middle, and first-line managers of 93 micro and small-size firms operating in the Marmara Region of Turkey. Frequency, factor, regression, and validity and reliability analyses through the SPSS package program were used. The results are two folds. First, generative leadership and digital literacy of executive management help flourish digital maturity when searched independently. Second, the study results indicate that the digital literacy of executive managers has a mediating effect on the relationship between generative leadership and digital maturity. Furthermore, the study proves the mediating effect on digital maturity's technological, strategic, and cultural maturity subdimensions. With these findings in micro and small businesses, the study comprehensively contributes to the current knowledge in this domain.

“…La madurez en ti está asociada a la evolución de las organizaciones en relación con características de la infraestructura técnica y su gestión (Ragowsky et al, 2012), el grado de su adopción y difusión (Ekuobase & Olutayo, 2016), su uso estratégico y la habilidad de los empleados en su uso (Suh et al, 2017). Múltiples modelos de madurez han sido desarrollados en diferentes áreas de investigación, especialmente en desarrollo de software, adopción de ti y gestión de conocimiento (Poeppelbuss et al, 2011).…”

Múltiples modelos de madurez en tecnologías de información (ti) son presentados en la literatura. Algunos han sido validados en pymes y pocos operacionalizan el método para clasificar las organizaciones en niveles de madurez. La mayoría de estos hacen una clasificación general de las organizaciones en un único nivel de madurez. Sin embargo, una organización podría estar en múltiples niveles de madurez a la vez para diferentes criterios de clasificación. Utilizando la capacidad en ti para analizar la madurez tecnológica desde diferentes dimensiones, se aplica un algoritmo de agrupación jerárquico (hcpc) para agrupar 2.470 empresas estudiadas. A partir de esta agrupación, se identificaron cuatro niveles de madurez para cada una de las dimensiones de la capacidad en ti: nivel 1 o de incorporación, nivel 2 o de aprendizaje, nivel 3 o de planeación y control, y nivel 4 o de alineación. Finalmente, se propone un método para clasificar las organizaciones en estos cuatro niveles de madurez para cada una de las dimensiones de la capacidad en ti.

“…A culture promoting innovation and a flexible organizational structure was also suggested. Ekuobase and Olutayo (2016) also found a negative and weak relationship between information and communication technology (ICT) maturity and ICT value. The authors pointed out that getting benefits from ICT adoption is not always related to the extent of ICT adoption, and there may be other factors affecting this relationship.…”

Digitalization has significant power to boost the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Most scholars approached the phenomenon from different standpoints by examining the effects of information technology skills, digital skills, information systems capabilities, information and communication technologies (ICT) adoption, and digitalization on firm performance. However, although the terms are interrelated, the impact of digital maturity on SMEs' performance has been rarely investigated. Digital maturity examines the extent of digitalization and digital capabilities of organizations, which is essential in evaluating state-of-the-art organizations' digitalization efforts and providing a roadmap for further improvement. Although digitalization offers various benefits to organizations, its direct effect on the performance outcome is still arguable. Prior studies had revealed mixed findings when they assessed the impact of digital maturity on firm performance. Hence, some studies called for research for the examination of possible intervening variables. Consequently, this study examines the effects of digital maturity and organizational agility on firm performance. Furthermore, the moderating role of organizational agility in the digital maturity-firm performance link is also investigated. Data for testing the proposed model was collected from SMEs in the Marmara Region of Turkey using a convenience sampling technique. The structural equation modeling with partial least squares estimation (PLS-SEM) approach was used to analyze 119 responses collected from SMEs via face-to-face and online questionnaires. Eighty-two of the respondents identified themselves as entrepreneurs/partners. 13 respondents are senior executives, 14 are mid-level managers, 8 are white-collar employees, and two stated that they work in different positions than these. The findings show that organizational agility and digital maturity have a positive impact on firm performance. However, when the role of organizational agility is examined as a moderator, it is discovered that the factor reduces the effect of digital maturity on firm performance.
