Managing the Decentralized IT Organization

Abstract

The growing trend to decentralize the IT function and move applications development to business units is often controlled by top management. A coordinated set of best practices helps IT managers take charge of change, position the IT organization as both a vendor of development services and a provider of vital infrastructure services, and ensure a logical career-enhancing structure for IT professionals.
