There should be three departments: Product Development (design, R&D), Product Deployment (Go to Market), and Product Operations.<br /><br />Each department comprised of "IT" and "business" people on the same incentive plans. You are either building a product or service, deploying it to a market or operating it. Computers and information are implicit at each step. The artificial separation of business and IT only fosters confusion and delay to quote Sir Topham Hatt, neither IT not business gains anything from the separation.gunnarhttp://1raindrop.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088979.post-85419306932275325072010-11-23T08:20:16.108-05:002010-11-23T08:20:16.108-05:00thanks for the mention.
Yes, the many references ...thanks for the mention.<br /><br />Yes, the many references to cloud seemed odd. The reporter used some of the other innovation areas I described like sensory networks, predictive analytics etc in other articles she wrote.vinnie mirchandanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13889014217213955448noreply@blogger.com
