This will be done by looking at each technology individually, identifying the technology's function, observing the technology's impact on the organization, and connecting them to the strategic intent. Use all of the provided information (articles, videos, etc.). See the sample completed activity provided in the course.
Use your own observations and opinion. There are no right or wrong answers. Not all of the pieces will fit together nor will all strategies be explicated. You will need to think like a detective and link the connections together to form, in your opinion, a logical overall technology strategy.
