In IT, we love our frameworks. Whether agile, ITIL, lean, cobit, six sigma or others, our thirst for “best practice” guidance seems to be unquenchable. The concept of a “best practice” is an enigma. Who decides if a practice is actually the best? And best for whom? While an “adopt and adapt” mentality is advocated […]

IT Organization: Blend, Don’t Divide
Bi-modal is the new normal, but the best way to approach this is to blend operations, not create separate groups. There’s been much ado lately about the transition of enterprise IT from traditional, steady operations to a highly agile and services-based operation. Companies of all sizes are moving to the cloud and adopting DevOps, yet […]
Security at the Speed of Innovation
