In The Technology Doesn't Matter: Prioritizing the People in IT Business Alignment, veteran IT executive Rachel Lockett delves into an engaging and insightful exploration of how to turnaround IT departments struggling to effectively collaborate with their business counterparts. Within the book, readers will embark on a journey to uncover the proven and established People-Process-Technology framework, breaking down innovative approaches to IT-business alignment in a clear and accessible style.

The author elucidates how to "manage up" and "manage down" to foster inter- and intra-departmental synergy, as well as:

How to identify the four types of business leaders and the ways they can contribute to effective IT business alignment.
Practical solutions to even the most seemingly intractable technology alignment problems.
Hands-on professional development guidance for IT and business leaders.

An essential and original resource for executives, managers, directors, founders, entrepreneurs, and other business leaders, The Technology Doesn't Matter will also appeal to tech leaders and technology service providers seeking to better communicate with non-technical professionals. It serves as a practical handbook for business leaders who wish to enhance their understanding, relate to, and collaborate with their IT colleagues, improve engagement and retention amongst IT employees, and align the interests of technical and non-technical professionals.
