The Four Key Elements of a Tight Tech Strategy

Last week, I shared the difference between good companies and excellent companies. The chief difference is excellent companies know how to leverage technology for business growth. But knowing how to leverage technology in a growing organization takes... forethought and a tight strategy. The four key elements to a tight technology strategy are:

1) Deal With The Now. This is where you determine what role technology is currently playing in your organization - and muse about what role it could play.

2) Strategize & Plan. Outline your plan of attack. What pieces of your technology feed off one another?

3) Implementation. This is the doing part of the strategy - actually doing the work to make the shift.

4) Measure & Monitor. What doesn't get measured gets forgotten. Determine when and how you will measure success and progress.
