Time will tell. In case you didn't read it yet:

Still drinking the McKinsey Kool-Aid, eh kids? The only ones who benefit from following that brand of "wisdom" are the McKinsey buccaneers, sucking lord-only-knows how many Euros per hour from the company. Wise up, NBS -- You can't outsource ethical behavior, leadership and experience.

Not enough change. He just gave new titles to a bunch of useless management! The only good news is Keith and Mary are finally gone. The cuts should come in the next layers as they move positions to low cost service centers.

Impressive town hall today. New CIO shaping up to be an enhancement over former release? Hold him to his word ! Very very different style. Is there substance behind? Time will tell. But enough about him. Anyone else hear a subtle "get your shit into higher gear, it's time to realize your full potential" ? And who was that in the first row face down in the iPhone?
 


A lot of supposed organizational talent tuning in today. Trust new CIO takes advantage of interacting more frequently at global scale. Can you say COMMUNICATION into higher gear, please? Speed and scope of execution are now imperative to reverse current organizational inertia of dysfunction. Good on you SS for calling this out!
 


All those Enterprise Architects who take vendor white papers and recycle them as EA "strategy" documents had better hope someone doesn't Googling the text in them. Too bad their former boss was too concerned with building his empire to check to see if it added any value.

Assuming the company honestly values IT operational excellence, there should be focused investment on architecting fault-tolerant/resistant applications and infrastructure. Although the budget may be "centralized", there was no mention of the word on that slide for what makes "Great IT". What do they say about putting all your eggs in one basket?
