- Synopsis
- None of us likes to be told how to get our job done. And the creative, well-educated problem solvers in IT hate it more than most. If you want IT leaders to support your every whim (or, more realistically, given the overwhelming demand for IT services, even one of your whims), it's imperative to collaborate with them during strategic and tactical planning. You must learn to work with your team to derive a strategy that makes sense for you and your company and hold IT accountable for helping you facilitate the process. The endgame isn't simply about getting along better with IT; it's about expanding your strategic impact. In this chapter, you will learn exactly what an IT-enabled business strategy is and the specific components necessary to transform your strategy, including how to avoid potential pitfalls. This chapter was originally published as Chapter 3 of 8 Things We Hate About IT: How to Move Beyond the Frustrations to Form a New Partnership with IT.
