| Abstract: | Traditional management of information technology must undergo rapid and radical change. Some call the discipline's current state of introspection an identity crisis. Others see it as a crisis for the very survival of the profession. Whatever self-examination IS professionals are experiencing, business management knows what it wants from IT: innovative, creative, entrepreneurial professionals who can step up to the risks and successfully manage them. Organizations need IT professionals who can generate results—and at a pace that can significantly leverage the corporation's ability to create value. |
