Yesterday I had the chance to attend a great conversation on Twitter and Youtube. Brillantly facilitated by Tim Crawford, the discussion revolved around the relevance of IT today and involved Mark Thiele EVP Datacenter at Switch, Stuart Appley CIO at Shorenstein, and Bob Egan CEO of the Sepharim Group.
Throughout the conversation – that’s not the words that were used – but it seemed that there was a consensus on the fact that the way we delivered IT services had reached an inflection point and that new paradigm more centered on”Piecing Together the Business and IT” and on “Not Seperating IT From the Business” would make IT more relevant particularly in today’s digital age.
