| Abstract | ||
| This study aims to investigate the impact of the various dimensions of digital transformation (DT) (strategy, culture, security and legislative requirements, technological requirements, and human requirements) on institutional performance (academic, administrative, and societal) at Deraya University in Egypt. To achieve the study's objective, the researcher used a descriptive analytical approach. A questionnaire was designed and distributed online to all Deraya University employees (approximately 357). A census method was used, and 315 valid and complete questionnaires were retrieved, with a response rate of approximately 88.8%. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The study results concluded that there is a statistically significant relationship between the combined dimensions of DT and institutional performance at Deraya University. The results showed that organizational culture, security, and legislative requirements have a significant impact on the implementation of DT and the achievement of institutional goals. The results also showed that technological, human, cultural, security, legislative, and strategic requirements, respectively, have a strong impact on administrative performance. Furthermore, the provision of human requirements, organizational culture, and security & legislative requirements, respectively, impact societal performance. The study recommended that universities have to pay greater attention to developing and formulating strategies and providing technological requirements to enhance their societal performance. Furthermore, providing security and legislative requirements plays a vital role in achieving sustainability and institutional development. The study also recommended that higher education institutions (HEIs) have to develop a comprehensive strategy for DT, promote digital culture, enhance cybersecurity, provide security and legislative requirements, develop digital transformation strategies, modernize technological infrastructure, enhance human resource capabilities, and monitor and evaluate digital transformation initiatives, all of which contribute to improving academic, administrative, and societal performance. | ||
