Fred has also written a new book for which he says "my goal is to share some of the insights I’ve gained through experience in the trenches and provide a blueprint for businesses to follow to help wring maximum value from their technology investments. The blueprint is based on Seven Initiatives I have developed and put into practice at several companies, initiatives that have helped drive these organizations forward. They are grounded in the basic principle of aligning your IT strategies and investments with your overarching business strategies and goals. These initiatives, which have been tested and refined in the real world, offer guidelines that any organization can adapt to its own specific needs. Whether your organization is a global corporation, a medium-sized business, a government agency, or a non-profit, there are universal challenges that we all face as well as solutions that can be tailored to fit each unique situation." | |||||
