This volume collects eight articles previously published in Harvard Business Review from 2002 to 2010 that focus on aligning technology with strategy. Written by management, strategy, and information technology (IT) specialists from the US, the articles outline six decisions that should not be left to IT executives; a systematic approach to understanding and executing IT and the principles for its organization; how to avoid overspending on IT and guidelines for IT management; how to pursue less vulnerable positions as a strategic alternative to head-on competition when a new technology emerges; the role of the board of directors in supervision of IT operations; how to use data-collection technology and analysis to get optimum value from all business processes; a strategy for gaining a competitive edge using a consistent technology platform, better ways of working, and propagating process innovations throughout the company; and how to build strategy by freeing employees to experiment with new technologies, make high-profile decisions, and speak for the organization in public, such as through social media.
