It Strategies in the Post-Pandemic Era: Closed Loop Lifecycle Planning(c) Series

There were many trends in motion pre-pandemic. During the pandemic many of those trends such as changing demographics, remote work, cloud computing, and collaboration were accelerated. We are entering a post-pandemic era where these changes are the new mainstream. IT must embrace, adapt, and change. Change is never simple nor is it easy - our IT legacy represents perhaps our biggest challenge and inhibitor. This book introduces new methodologies and practices for IT - Priority Based Budget and Behavior Driven IT. Priority Based Budget focuses an operational budget, a tactical budget, and a strategic budget. Behavior Driven IT is defined as the identification of meaningful trends in IT and the overall industry, then applying technologies to meet the end user expectations to build the IT infrastructure surrounding the end user. Combined, these new approaches will assist IT to continue its leadership role.
