Strengthen Alignment with IT To Maximize the Business Offering
In 2023, small businesses are faced with unique opportunities and challenges that simply didn’t exist ten years ago. This is nothing new; the same held true in 2010, 2000, 1990 and all the preceding decades. It’s important to realize, however, that technology is evolving at a faster pace than business practice, creating a widening gap in the alignment between the two. A recent study reports that just 11% of Information Technology (“IT”) leaders see themselves as “truly part of the business”. This presents a problem, especially for small businesses.
Why is business alignment with IT so important?
IT is no longer a supporting player within a small business. Technology affects every aspect of business goals, no matter the industry, field or trade, technology plays a key role, making IT-business alignment paramount to business success.
Businesses that embrace this alignment with IT broaden their opportunities, whether it is reaching more customers through social media, meeting face-to-face with customers outside a limited geographical area or building trust through secure information exchange.
