But change has not come evenly. The very pace of technological advancement has tended to hide some fundamental problems that have existed from the start. These involve, not the technology only, but the management and application of that technology. The human and organizational factors have not kept pace. They have remained relatively static and, to a shocking degree, ineffective. As a result, the IT department in any organization has somehow remained a breed apart. Communication between IT and the rest of the organization is fraught with misunderstanding. This leads to failures, recrimination, and, sometimes, wholesale changes which fall well wide of their goals. The authors wrote this book because they wanted both business and IT to change the way they think and talk about how IT is invested in and managed in organizations. In The Value Imperative readers will be introduced to a new business model called The Agricultural Model created by the authors for managing IT in organizations. This innovative model will help you learn how to change the mindset of people in your organization about how IT should be invested in and managed; key considerations for ensuring that business value is delivered from IT investments; how to measure that value that has been delivered and whether there has been effective return on the investments made; and finally the authors challenge business and IT managers to focus on the business value that customers seek which will help companies. . 000772167 588__ $$aOnline resource, title from PDF title page (viewed on August 2, 2016). 000772167 650_0 $$aInformation technology projects$$xManagement. 000772167 7001_ $$aCollins, Robert,$$eauthor. 000772167 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781137590398 000772167 852__ $$bebk 000772167 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-59040-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000772167 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:772167$$pGLOBAL_SET 000772167 980__ $$aEBOOK 000772167 980__ $$aBIB 000772167 982__ $$aEbook 000772167 983__ $$aOnline 000772167 994__ $$a92$$bISE
