"Post dot-com, post Y2K, post client/server, and post open systems, we see that the binge on tech spending during the 80s and 90s has caused a hangover in the IT industry that will last for years. It's almost as if the historical (and hysterical) "just say yes" dynamics of IT investment have been replaced with (the equally hysterical) "just say no." Some might believe external forces such as a poor economy, global political instability, terrorism, and so forth are to blame for the slowdown in tech-related spending. But rather than blame factors beyond our control, we must pay attention to a more dramatic and systemic change that is evolving in the world of IT spending within our corporations and institutions. IT leaders of today must really justify our existence. This is a new dynamic for us, and it is confusing to many IT professionals."
