With the proliferation of cloud-based self-service platforms, it is becoming increasingly commonplace for business to break free from the shackles that bound them to Information Technology (IT) strategy forever.

While strategy is never a bad thing, it can be the slow-moving tanker that takes forever to change course, and in the age of agility, most companies have not aligned their strategy with agile principles, even less so IT.

Shadow IT, as it is known, has many advantages – with business possessing the ability to pursue available opportunities quickly proving the biggest plus. But it also creates many challenges.

These challenges require attention in order to prevent a shadow IT initiative from going rogue.

What are these challenges, and how do we mitigate the risk associated with them?

Join Anton Oosthuizen (LinkedIn profile), as he shares lessons learned from practical experience that can be applied by both project managers and business analysts to keep shadow IT initiatives in the light.
