Why our engineering teams are our innovation teams

A team led by, and consisting of, growth-minded engineers is likely the best antidote to the risks that face today’s technology initiatives.

As an engineering leader at a medium-to-large company, it takes courage (with perhaps a touch of naïveté) to embark on any ambitious technology initiative.

Doubly so when armed with the knowledge that, of the likely outcomes for an average IT Project, 15% of them will fail outright, and of those that don’t, 31% will fail to meet their initial goals, 43% will go over budget, and 48% will be delivered late.

I don’t know about you, but those odds are unappealing at best and frightening at worst.
