"It's not fair, why are we setting up our IT people for failure?"
When you’re talking about Information Management – who do you feel should heading it up?
It's like buying glass of wine at a restaurant.
You are buying the wine, or you're buying the glass? And the answer is, of course you're buying the wine. The glass is a delivery mechanism. You've got to have it. It's a symbiotic relationship without the glass. You go up to the bar and they pour it into your hands. That doesn't happen. So you get your wines served in a glass.
Now it might be a beautiful or ideal glass. So the infrastructure, the delivery infrastructure may be beautiful. But if the quality of the wine is poor, if the wine is vinegar, you're going to have a bad experience. So it's terribly important to differentiate between IT (Information Technology) and IM (Information Management).
So, if "IT" doesn't look after the data, information and knowledge...who should?
