Most organisations do not have a technology problem. They have a timing problem.

Technology is often brought into the conversation only after the strategy has been agreed, the acquisition signed, the operating model designed, the budget committed, or the deadline announced. Then the technology team is expected to make everything work.

In The Cost Centre in the Corner: Why Strategy Fails When Technology Enters Too Late, Henny Schlebusch challenges the enduring idea that technology is simply a support function or cost centre.

Drawing on more than two decades of leadership across financial services, telecommunications, logistics and security, he shows how separating business strategy from technology creates predictable consequences: failed transformations, costly integrations, security weaknesses, technical debt, operational fragility and strategies that cannot survive contact with reality.

This is not an argument that CIOs deserve a bigger seat at the table. It is an argument that organisations make better decisions when technology is considered before those decisions become difficult, expensive or impossible to reverse.

The book explores why sensible-looking cost reductions can create long-term risk, how technology debt becomes business debt, why late IT involvement undermines execution, and how CIOs can stop defending technology budgets and start shaping better business decisions.

Written for CEOs, CFOs, CIOs, executives and board members, The Cost Centre in the Corner is about changing the point at which technology enters the conversation.

Because when technology enters too late, an organisation can spend years paying for a decision that took minutes to make.
