The Future of IT
What is the true business value of IT? The truth is it's hard to gauge.
We've all seen spectacular examples of IT in action over the years, but
much more can be done. We haven't reached our full potential and effectively
demonstrated it to our end users.
Over the years I've seen a lot of IT challenges, and I've responded by
developing a seven-initiative strategy to help steer away from the siren
song of technology for technology's sake.
The results have been dramatic. With these initiatives AMD has blazed
trails in harnessing IT to achieve specific enterprise-wide business goals.
In the columns below, I describe these initiatives - and our success -
in detail.
Fred brings over 30 years of experience in the area of information technology having held key executive IT positions at AMD, IBM, InfoSpan Corporation, American Express, Honeywell and his own company, Quality Service Solutions.
Immediately prior to joining AMD, Fred served as Vice President and CIO
of Information Technology at Honeywell Corporation for its Industrial Automation
Controls Division. Before Honeywell, Fred's IT leadership at American Express
was instrumental in the development and implementation of new applications
and services and in the re-engineering of the information technology organization.

and CIO Magazine. |
