This presentation demonstrates the chasm between business, and IT, dives into the root causes of mis-alignment, and proposes restructuring the entire IT Organization to create effective business IT alignment. An excellent treatment of business IT alignment from an IT function perspective.
- The author demonstrates the business IT disconnect is real, and has a reason: Business does not have confidence in the CIO because the IT organization does not deliver on business requirements.
- If IT fails to deliver, and communicate value, it will become irrelevant to the business.
- To create better alignment with the business, IT must restructure itself to deliver business value, not tools and technologies.
