Overview

IT Strategy & Innovation examines how IT is changing organizations and explores the dialogue around critical issues. Edition 5.0 is divided into four sections: 1) Business Value. How people, processes, and technologies work together to deliver value with IT; 2) IT-Business Partnership. The structures, processes and roles that guide the partnership between IT and Business; 3) IT-Enabled Innovation. Challenges to innovating with IT; and, 4) IT Strategy. How IT strategy is more about guardrails for adopting technology as opposed to solutions. The text combines the experiences and insights of senior IT managers from leading-edge organizations with thorough academic research to illustrate important issues and show IT strategy in action within contemporary businesses.
