Take a look at the IT Skeptic’s latest post regarding underspending: http://www.itskeptic.org/why-it-projects-fail-underspend. I’m not going to claim to be a genius, but without even reading the post I knew right away where the underspending is; people. In the post he even mentions how we underspend on changing culture, which is a key success factor if an initiative is going to succeed or fail. Once again, the IT Skeptic is preaching to the choir.
Started working in IT in 1999 as a support desk analyst as a way to help pay for food during college. Studied Electrical Engineering for two years before realizing biochemistry was more fun than differential equations, and so ultimately graduated with a Biology degree in 2006. Having (reluctantly) failed at getting accepted into dental school, embraced working in IT and has gone broke becoming an ITIL Expert. Likes to jog, sing camp songs, quote Mel Brooks movie lines and make dumb jokes and loves working for an Israeli tech company where December 25th is a regular work day.
