"Go beyond simple alignment to maximize the role,
impact, and value of technology in your
organization. From technology giants to major
airlines to government agencies, the landscape is littered
with the shells of once-promising enterprises that failed
to do one thing: Converge their impressive technology
initiatives with their business strategies. With countless
opportunities lost and billions wasted, these examples
provide a much-needed wake up call that it is time to
institutionalize a set of repeatable management practices
to successfully run an organization. The Power of
Convergence makes the case--and lays the groundwork--for a
new understanding of the role of technology in business. No
technology should be developed or deployed without a full
vision of how it advances business goals, addresses
customer needs, or both. Beyond that, technology should be
so tightly intertwined with strategy that the two drive
each other, with each at the ready when market opportunity
materializes--however suddenly. With compelling examples of
successes and failures at organizations from Ford Motor
Company to the FBI, The Power of Convergence provides the
framework and mechanisms for uniting business and
technology, seeding horizontal collaborations and
partnering opportunities, and capturing strategic
possibilities created through convergence."
