IT Leaders Must Pursue Three Key Initiatives – A commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Microsoft
Summary
CIOs today are struggling to address three major problems: inadequate technology, a lack of collaboration capabilities, and a lack of new technology to empower the user. To understand these challenges, Forrester Consulting interviewed 15 senior IT executives around the world. A review of Forrester’s guidance to senior IT leaders on the evolution of technology and the market revealed three key initiatives that IT leaders must pursue: migrate to a shared, automated dynamic IT infrastructure; integrate enterprise infrastructure software; and build the Information Workplace.
This white paper describes the challenges IT leaders face today and outlines three key initiatives to address those challenges.
