Close the gap between IT and Business goals with Strategy Alignment.
IT Leaders lament about the accelerating pace of business. Successful IT leaders will quickly move on and find ways to partner with business in business planning. Failing to do this, IT will always be stuck at the end of the line when it comes to influencing decisions. In neglecting the Strategy Alignment imperative IT will be forced to implement IT projects that are adverse to its own strategy and goals.
Methodologies for relating business to IT in a strategy building process are essential for understanding the impact of strategic and tactical business decisions to the IT landscape early on. This is especially important in industries where the business is mainly comprised of IT-based activities. Strategy operationalization, identification of IT value contribution and strategic IT road-mapping are basic disciplines for aligning IT and business strategies.
