It ’ s clear that DHHS ’ s digital transformation approach has had a transformative impact on the ways Victorians can interact with the department and draw on its resources . For Hodgkinson , the role of the CIO as it pertains to digital transformation is that of the catalyst . “ People have a propensity to want to try and solve the whole of the problem – until they can see a way to solve for the whole then they don ’ t even get started . The agility that is possible using today ’ s cloud services platforms means that , as long as you ’ ve got a sufficient awareness of the big picture and where it can go to , the most important thing is to get started , deliver something and iterate upon it as opposed to agonising forever over trying to solve for the whole integrated solution . I like to say that ‘ startegy is usually the best strategy ’. Getting started and learning fast is often better than spending too long strategising and failing to actually get around to doing .”
