Technology is at its best when it’s simple enough that anyone can use it. Not just the people who are trained in it.
At the same time technology should be flexible enough to handle real life problems.
It should encourage collaborative problem solving. Facilitate communication across groups of people and just blend in with the daily life.
Good technologies should improve business processes. That is possible only when we are more methodical in our approach.
1. Do more with less. Discover ways to use the existing tools and platforms in unique new ways, before you go shopping for new stuff, if something doesn’t meet your exact standard.
2. Work towards unification or convergence of tech. Web is a great example of different technologies being used from a common interface. Define similar interfaces for your business processes.
3. Always keep on learning. Technology is at a stage where basic understanding can pretty much allow you to digitize all your business. Most of it is free. All you need is to take some time out and learn how to use it.
Even if you possess the best possible technology it won’t be of any use if you don’t apply it.
