How to Purchase Technology and Avoid Regret
15 november 2022 · 25 min
Enterprise technology purchasing has changed and continues to evolve, but whether that evolution occurs rapidly enough to meet the demands of digital transformation remains to be seen. Lees meer
A 2022 Gartner survey revealed that 62 percent of recent technology purchases failed to meet respondents' expectations; only 13 percent said that their purchase both met their expectations and that they did not settle when it came to making their final technology selection to purchase. Still, 85 percent of respondents said they received value from their purchase. What's behind this disconnect between satisfaction and perceived value? Most often, the answer can be found in the technology purchase process.
In this episode, Hank Barnes, Chief of Research on the Gartner Tech & Service Provider team, who focuses on enterprise technology buying behavior, speaks with ThinkCast's host Karen Stokes Lockhart, Expert Partner, about the challenges tech purchase teams face, how to navigate increasingly complex purchase processes and when to ask for help.

28 juni 2022 · 21 min
You've likely heard the phrase "enterprise value model," but how many of us know exactly what it means — and how to use it to our organization's advantage?

31 mei 2022 · 18 min
Every business likes to claim that it is "data-driven" or at least "data-informed," but too often, that's not the way things actually work.

There is, however, a better way, and it relies on successfully linking data to business outcomes. Lees meer
In this episode, Andrew White, a Distinguished VP Analyst for Data and Analytics, and Sarah Turkaly, a Principal, Advisory for Data and Analytics, outline how you can use the Gartner Value Pyramid to break down silos, reengineer key decisions and align data with leadership's mission critical priorities.

Sixty percent of HR leaders are significantly concerned about employee turnover, and 62% of candidates have explored a career change in the last year.
