Government IT projects are often prone to failure, and too often, the blame falls on CIOs and IT leaders. Much of the cause of project failure is usually unrelated to the IT department itself or the technology.

It can be attributed to an unwillingness or inability of senior government executives to engage in effective decision making, poor IT investment decision-making processes, and the failure of government executives to take responsibility for change management.

Yet, how can government IT leaders impact factors that seem beyond their control?

Join Michael Brown (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr. Director Analyst  & Michael McFerron  (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr Director Analyst
