One can choose to work in many different areas, as there are many business units with similar roles.
Complex to navigate across the matrixed organizational model.
I understand the importance of being agile and delivering incremental value. This approach has left a gap in the long-term strategy we are pursuing—specifically, what is our strategy for AI, blockchain, etc.? We have not decomposed hybrid cloud.
There is a lot of duplication in the company. It is easy in IBM to take an idea and run with it to solve a business problem (using a quick/agile model). The problem is we have lots of capabilities that are not world-class. If we could only align these efforts, we could achieve more significant benefits.
Every BU/division wants to build their own versus centralizing. My suggestion is to consolidate duplicate solutions using a centralized model. Typically, CIO teams provide these enterprise capabilities, but in IBM, it seems the brands do it on their own, creating lots of diversity, impacting the user experience, and resulting in sub-par capacity.
