B2B Data Integration and Transformation Blog

I read an interesting article the other day from CIO Magazine. The article lends to a slow but growing confidence in the economy and should make those in the IT industry a bit more encouraged.  Hopefully this will give all of us a little needed pep in our step as we head into 2011.  Below are the highlights of the article, which polled over 250 IT leaders.

Just weeks ago I wrote in the June edition of THINKRONIZATION that we were seeing / hearing a lot about levels of preparedness in IT to support a return to growth. For those that expect company growth to return, some are prepared for it, others are planning for it, and a few are still operating as if they are in survival mode.

If your organization is like most, you have reduced staff and non-essential expenditures. Maybe you have consolidated business systems and the teams that support those systems. It is likely you have also sought to get more out of the business integration environment you already have in place. All this has been in response to an economy that has been in decline for about two years now.
