I.T. Wars is the first book to effectively tackle the necessity for proper alignment of technology and business, from a holistic consideration, in achieving best results and optimal returns. A new-concept environment, the Business-Technology Weave is introduced as a new leading edge - a responsible (and necessary) forward edge. It is a mutually reinforcing one whereby all elements – people, knowledge, communication, corporate culture, attitudes, relationships, content (information), infrastructure, applications, needs, and expectations - are tuned and balanced in accordance with the continuum of change. Within the continuum are ongoing challenges, and the contiguous nature of technology’s support to every corner and crevice of today’s business process. Everything from employee behaviour (concerning instant messaging, e-mails, blogging, and downloading) - to disaster planning, preparedness, prevention, and recovery - to large-scale issues of national security, are exposed, examined, and discussed for ultimate outcome within the Weave. [420 pages, trade paperback, BookSurge Publishing. ISBN: 1419627635. LCCN: 2006902076].
I.T. Wars begins with a patient, comprehensive exposure of today’s environment and challenges, with equal attention to the Business and IT reader. Whether your organization is public, private, government agency, association, for profit, non/not-for-profit, or even sole-proprietorship, you share the same concerns: You need a business-driven IT strategy, as well as a business-serving one. I.T. Wars helps you to build an "IT Enlightened Organization." It then opens a clear view to forward progress – a vision and pragmatism strong enough to qualify any organization for discussion, planning, and achievement of the best business-technology outcomes.
