Résumé

"At a time when corporations are cash-constrained, yet under enormous competitive pressures, the authors answer a critical question: How can an enterprise best align its spending with its strategic priorities? Connecting the Dots is a must-read."
-Hank Paulson, Chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs

"It's rare to find a book that offers both insight and practical guidance for driving greater value. Connecting the Dots does just that, regardless of what industry you are in. And it does so in a way that you can use when you get into the office tomorrow."
- Chris Poleway, President of FORTUNE Group Magazines

"Aligning business direction, cultural traits, and information technology sounds simple-but it never is. Connecting the Dots is a refreshing and practical guide for getting it done."
-Ralph Szygenda, CIO of General Motors

"Connecting the Dots is groundbreaking work. Alignment has eluded executives for decades resulting in obscene amounts of waste. Benko and McFarlan team up to provide what hasn't been accessible before: a practical, richly balanced framework that starts with what is and powerfully guides the reader to what can and should be."
-Richard L. Nolan, William Barclay Harding Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School
