À propos de cet audio

Becoming an effective IT manager presents a host of challenges - from anticipating emerging technology to managing relationships with vendors, employees, and other managers. A good IT manager must also be a strong business leader. This book invites you to accompany new CIO Jim Barton to better understand the role of IT in your organization. You'll see Jim struggle through a challenging first year, handling (and fumbling) situations that, although fictional, are based on true events. You can listen to this book from beginning to end, or treat is as a series of cases. You can also skip around to address your most pressing needs. For example, need to learn about crisis management and security? Listen to chapters 10-12. You can formulate your own responses to a CIO's obstacles by listening to the authors' regular "Reflection" questions. You'll turn to this book many times as you face IT-related issues in your own career.

This book was a very enjoyable story, wandering through the raft of challenges and questions an IT leader faces. Sometimes cringeworthy because you could see the lead character’s thought processes (and understand them). Overall an uplifting read.

Real-world problems

Might be ok for someone completely new to IT, who just wants a feel for how things work. Not too helpful for anyone who already has experience.

Similar to The Phoenix Project except:
- Not as well written
- Not as technical
- Doesn't provide insight in dealing with the problems IT organizations face (the 'game' seems to be set on easy-mode for the protagonist)

There is also a bunch of nudges in the books about the importance of "consultants", which seem to be more for the benefit of the authors, than the story.

I find it somewhat strange that the narrator is a women, given that the mine character is a man, and so are the majority of key characters.
