Some people are never satisfied. These fearless agents of change are everywhere. They’re informed, confident and willing to experiment. They seek out the best business technology solution for the job at hand. They act on instinct. Yes, you could say that they’re driven.
\nHowever, they’re also at risk of being labeled as “rogue employees” because they ordered a software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering and perhaps expensed it without prior approval. Sometimes they’re the champion of progressive projects that are referred to as Shadow IT — intentionally bypassing their company’s formal evaluation and procurement process. How can this happen?
\nIs it just because their activities are tolerated, or are they being encouraged? If so, by whom? Why would any business leader applaud a team member that breaks the rules? Maybe, the simple answer is that staying within the confines of the status-quo won’t enable a top-performer to fully apply their talent, achieving their absolute best.<\/p>\n
