Organization and Management of IT
This book takes a practical look at how IT organizations need to position themselves optimally in this dynamically changing world and what this means for the leadership of this increasingly important IT. In addition, the book takes a closer look at the topic of managing an IT organization: What is the role and what are the leadership responsibilities of a CIO? How and by what means can an IT organization best be managed? How can complex change processes and transformations be managed? Thus, the book offers a practical guide for organizational change or reorganization of IT with many tips on change management, leadership, and agile methods and approaches in the new IT organization.
Real Business of IT
If you're a general manager or CFO, do you feel you're spending too much on IT or wishing you could get better returns from your IT investments? If so, it's time to examine what's behind this IT-as-cost mind-set. In The Real Business of IT, Richard Hunter and George Westerman reveal that the cost mind-set stems from IT leaders' inability to communicate about the business value they create-so CIOs get stuck discussing budgets rather than their contributions to the organization. The authors explain how IT leaders can combat this mind-set by first using information technology to generate three forms of value important to leaders throughout the organization: -Value for money when your IT department operates efficiently and effectively -An investment in business performance evidenced when IT helps divisions, units, and departments boost profitability -Personal value of CIOs as leaders whose contributions to their enterprise go well beyond their area of specialization The authors show how to communicate about these forms of value with non-IT leaders-so they understand how your firm is benefiting and see IT as the strategic powerhouse it truly is.
Digital to the Core
There is no simple strategic method for dealing with the multidimensional nature of digital change. Even the sharpest leaders can become disoriented as change builds on change, leaving almost nothing certain. Yet to stand still is to fail. Enterprises and leaders must re-master themselves to succeed. Leaders must identify the key macro forces, then lead their organizations at three distinct levels: industry, enterprise, and self. By doing this they cannot only survive but clean up. Digital to the Core makes the case that all business leaders must understand the impact the digital revolution will continue to play in their industries, companies, and leadership style and practices.

Gamify
Organizations are facing an engagement crisis. Regardless if they are customers, employees, patients, students, citizens, stakeholders, organizations struggle to meaningfully engage their key constituent groups who have a precious and limited resource: their time. Not surprisingly, these stakeholders have developed deflector shields to protect themselves. Only a privileged few organizations are allowed to penetrate the shield, and even less will meaningfully engage. To penetrate the shield, and engage the audience, organizations need an edge. Gamification has emerged as a way to gain that edge and organizations are beginning to see it as a key tool in their digital engagement strategy. While...

DevOps
La tecnologia rappresenta una grande opportunità per la competitività delle imprese ma coniugarne lo sviluppo all'agilità e all'affidabilità dei processi non è facile. Una risposta arriva da DevOps - contrazione di development, "sviluppo", e operations, "messa in produzione" - una metodologia di sviluppo software pensata per aiutare le aziende a realizzare prodotti e servizi in modo rapido ed efficiente. Google, Amazon, Facebook e Netflix sono solo alcune delle realtà che la utilizzano per realizzare e mantenere applicazioni di vario tipo. Questo manuale vuole fornire una panoramica chiara e completa del movimento DevOps, mettendo in luce metodi, regole, principi e valori che sono alla base della creazione del software in modo iterativo e incrementale. Quindi si passa alla pratica, mostrando passo dopo passo tutti gli elementi che compongono un ciclo di rilascio continuo, dalla modifica sul computer del programmatore fino all’arrivo in produzione. Una guida dedicata sia allo sviluppatore alle prime armi sia al sistemista esperto e, in spirito Agile, anche a coloro che non scrivono codice: manager, analisti, coach, consulenti, imprenditori e appassionati.
