Seems to work pretty well for a lot of the CIO/CTO level people who I have worked with.
Unfortunately.
- olefoo 6y agoRemember that these individuals are usually hired and given responsibility based on their ability to game class signalling games; they exist to justify the status quo. If the status quo were more justifiable their actual job responsibilities to other people within the organization ( conflict resolution, scheduling, resource allocation, and personnel management) are things that could be automated in a hot minute.
- gabereiser 6y agoI don’t know about full automation, but I can confirm that in large f500 companies, Gartner holds a lot of weight. Most follow their recommendations. I’m guilty too of using that argument: “According to Gartner...” to give weight to my position when talking to C-level folks. I wish I didn’t have to, but lots of folks trust their recommendations.
