Office day

Today is a day in the office, that is a 5am start and 9 pm finish. The sunny day makes it a pleasant journey. I forgot my battery charger for the laptop, so I hope the meetings drag on to conserver power.

I.S. Strategy

The purpose of an I.S. strategy is to define the direction that I.T is taking in support of the business objectives. I am working on a six step model for the stages to be addressed in the production of a strategy, which should be completed by the end of July.

To start this discussion what is the role of a mission statement. I believe that this is stage one, and should be about telling different audiences what I.T does, and why it does it. This is as much about motivating the team as it is about telling the business what your role is.
