Macro Policy Spring 1996 September 26, 1996 Introduction This study will examine the development and evolution of semiconductor electronics, and in particular attempt to more completely explain "Moore's Law," a phenomenon unique to the rapid innovation cycles of this technology and thus the semiconductor industry as a whole. Organization of the Paper. Ford Motor Company - Company Profile, Information, Business Description, History, Background Information on Ford Motor Company. Company Perspectives: Our vision is to become the world's leading consumer company for automotive products and services.
We are a global family with a proud heritage passionately committed to providing personal mobility for people around the world. History of Ford Motor Company. Enterprise 2.0, version 2.0. I’m not satisfied with my earlier definition of Enterprise 2.0, so let’s propose a refinement (I’m sorry if this feels a bit pedantic, but clear constructs are important to academics): Enterprise 2.0 is the use of emergent social software platforms within companies, or between companies and their partners or customers.
Social software enables people to rendezvous, connect or collaborate through computer-mediated communication and to form online communities. (Wikipedia’s definition). Platforms are digital environments in which contributions and interactions are globally visible and persistent over time. Emergent means that the software is freeform, and that it contains mechanisms to let the patterns and structure inherent in people’s interactions become visible over time.
Freeform means that the software is most or all of the following: You Say IT, Forrester Says BT: What's the Difference? For those who've been laboring in the corporate computer-related profession for the past half century or so, the naming of their department has always been equal parts science, reality and hype.
The evolution of the modern-day technology shop has been decades in the making, with notable branding transformations over the years: What started off as the back-room punch-card division morphed into data processing, and then to MIS, to just IS, and finally to IT, where it's stayed for the better part of the last decade. For the past four years, Forrester Research CEO George Colony and his band of analysts have been arguing that technology folks now need to make the final metamorphosis from technologist to businessperson, as well as demand a departmental moniker overhaul—to move from Information Technology to Business Technology. Read the Enterprise Software Unplugged Blog. From IT to ET: Cloud, consumerization, and the next wave of IT transformation.
Businesses, schools, and governments desperately need tech-savvy managers who can innovate quickly, operationalize effectively, and keep their organizations competitive.
IT is being replaced by "enterprise technology" -- technology that's no longer confined to offices and office workers, but is embedded throughout the enterprise. IT as we know it is over. That's hardly a new observation. It was most notably made in 2003, in a now-famous Harvard Business Review article by pundit Nicholas Carr called "IT Doesn't Matter. " IT Doesn’t Matter. In 1968, a young Intel engineer named Ted Hoff found a way to put the circuits necessary for computer processing onto a tiny piece of silicon.
His invention of the microprocessor spurred a series of technological breakthroughs—desktop computers, local and wide area networks, enterprise software, and the Internet—that have transformed the business world. Today, no one would dispute that information technology has become the backbone of commerce. It underpins the operations of individual companies, ties together far-flung supply chains, and, increasingly, links businesses to the customers they serve. Hardly a dollar or a euro changes hands anymore without the aid of computer systems. As IT’s power and presence have expanded, companies have come to view it as a resource ever more critical to their success, a fact clearly reflected in their spending habits.
Forrester Research : Research : From Information Technology To Business Technology: An Interview With George F. Colony. For the past four years, Forrester Research CEO George F.
Colony has been preaching the gospel of converting information technologists into businesspeople. The number of converts has been lower than we hoped, but a generational change in IT and business leadership is beginning to force the issue. George calls this concept "moving from information technology to business technology — or IT to BT. " At its heart, the message is for IT to measure itself using business metrics that matter to the COO, CEO, and board of directors, instead of assessing its success with a technology yardstick, such as network availability or server uptime. Enterprise Change Management Project. ECM Deployment Process The picture below shows Prosci's ECM Deployment Process, based on our experience and research with organizations working to build their flexibility and durability by deploying change management across their organization.
Prosci's ECM Deployment Process Vision steps: 1. Define future state In the first step, you will develop the future state vision. 2. Strategy steps: 3. 4. 5. Implementation steps: 6. 7. 8. 9. ECM Strategy Map A critical task of ECM is selecting your deployment strategy. Some organizations had attempted to deploy change management by simply implementing it on many different projects. Leadership Project Skill Structure Process Next steps: In Prosci's most recent benchmarking study, we asked participants what they would do differently on their next change management deployment.
