Churchill's Adaptive Enterprise

Lessons for Business Today

By: Mark Kozak-Holland

This book reaches back into history to show how an organization under tremendous pressure built the equivalent of a modern-day On Demand solution-a portal-using the emerging technologies of the day. As he illustrates portal technology, author Mark Kozak-Holland draws parallels between historic events during World War II and today's business challenges. Kozak-Holland provides IT staff and C-level executives with a portal example that helps them understand both key business values and the requirements for delivering solutions. Armed with this knowledge, you can ensure that your portal projects meet expectations and continue to succeed long after deployment. As today's organizations move toward an On Demand business strategy by using portal and e-business technologies, many of the challenges are the same as those faced by Churchill during World War II. With a portal, companies can simultaneously manage multiple projects, resources, and costs, yet stay focused on their core business. Today, organizations must understand the impact of business events in real-time, compare them against various scenarios, and respond rapidly. Effective deployment and use of portal technology can greatly enhance these efforts. Churchill's Adaptive Enterprise is about reacting to business events proactively so organizations can stay ahead of their competition and thrive. It is about leveraging today's emerging portal technologies and using information, resources, and people to facilitate better decision velocity and to increase individual and team productivity.
