What role does Business Technology Management (BTM) has in the modern business world? According to the article by Joe Mullich in The Wall Street Journal; a great deal.
The article highlights the idea that for years MBA programs as well as executive training programs have solely focused on the technical side of integrating technology with business management. Which for many, can be a major turn off as business people shouldn’t be focusing on simply computing software (management information system) but rather on business technology management. They should be focused on a type of management that blends information with technology in order to make decisions more effectively. People should then be able to provide detailed reasoning, without being too technical, why certain technology can improve inventory ratios or supply chains or simply the way the business operates.
The success of the business is greatly dependent on the various areas of the business and the numerous people, to be able to successfully work together. Having someone who is business savvy and able to understand the mechanics and technology behind the business would be a tremendous asset to any company.
