What Morgan called « the management of meaning »

Intro Perspective MirrorValue Deliverables
• What does enterprise IT mean?
• What are you trying to improve?
• What do you need to learn?
• What does better mean?
• How do you measure success?
Focus Improve Knowledge Leverage Measure
• Economic transformation: The transformation from a manufacturing-
based economy to a services-based economy now underway throughout
the developed world will accelerate.
• One World of Business. Political and economic dynamics are forging a
single global market, a global workforce, global customers, partners, and
suppliers.
• Always On, Always Connected. The challenges of the “always on, always
connected” world will be converting information into insights; managing time
and staying focused on high priority tasks
• The Transparent Organization. The systems that make organizations
more agile also make them more accountable.
• NetGen Meets Baby Boom. Workers who will be delivering the innovations
and productivity growth of tomorrow, this technology not only won’t come as
a surprise, it will be a positive expectation.
• Competing for Talent in a Shrinking Workforce: Because demographics
show an aging, shrinking workforce in most of the developed world over the
next 50 years, maximizing the productivity of the workers that are available
is critical.

• Globalization : the increasingly circulation of
information across borders.
• Technical progression: the transformation of
communication « atoms to bits »
• Economic integration: vertical and horizontal
integration to profit from economies of scale
• Social innovation: human attempts to create new
forms of expression
• Multitasking : individual efforts to use multiple
communication platforms

• From an objective point of view, information
refers to date in context that conveys meaning
to an individual.
• From a subjective point of view, we could
suggest that it’s the individual’s perspective of
the data that implies meaning.
• Given these definitions what meaning do

• Structured data refers to data that can be easily represented in textual/numeric
form and stored in a database.
• Structured data is often logically organized around a data model or data object.
• Such models permit companies to compare and aggregate data in databases,
datamarts and data warehouses.

• Data is considered « non-structured » if we
can’t predefine its attributes and store it in a
table or data base
• Examples of this kind of data include press
clippings, videoclips, and songs
• In reality, this data isn’t « non-structured » - its
just that its attributes involve « complex »
relationships

• Nicolas Carr compares IT to previous tech revolutions such as
railroads and electricity. In what ways is IT different?
• What proof can you offer that information technology in
business no longer provides competitive advantage?
• Does the pervasiveness of IT mean there will be less innovation
now?
• Hasn't competitive advantage come from unique use of the
technology, not just from the technology itself? What examples
can you give?
• Do recent advances in Cloud Computing and Mobile
Applications confirm or contradict Nicolas Carr's claims?
