Languages and Perspectives
Sadly, when camping and staring at a campfire, my mind still seems to wander back to data-related topics. Such was the case during this Thanksgiving camping outing.
I ran across a set of notes that I had started a while back pertaining to the differences between the priorities, perspectives, and languages of business and I/T.
This obviously isn’t fully fleshed out, but I share it here for further discussion. I think it is pretty self-explanatory but I’ll be happy to clarify anything that is unclear.
I borrowed "The Language of Leadership" and "The Language of Management" from @Andrew Kallman and his FLOW methodology... I hope I haven't done any violence to the concepts, but I think I'm pretty close.
Brian Farish Vision for business directives vs. vision for execution. To the right you could add additional columns on language of execution of the execution (i.e. tactical vs strategic). How to get them talking the same language is the question, right?
Yep! Business usually does not speak Vulcan! 😂
