When the leaders of your company think about IT, do they consider it a necessary support function like legal or HR? Or do they see IT as a revenue driver that helps move the whole organization toward its financial goals?
Most experts agree that your team, your budget and your own role as an executive will benefit if IT is seen as a source of revenue, innovation and competitive advantage, rather than a function to be managed as cost-effectively as possible. And because you’ll be helping your company’s leaders use technology to gain competitive advantage, find new markets or strengthen relationships with customers, your organization will do better as well.
