- 8. ©TietoCorporation‹#› Not just software development, but rather business improvement. This is change of way of thinking. It is about asking questions & offering solutions. It is about cooperation with customer on processes re- engineering and simplification.
- 9. ©TietoCorporation‹#› Now! Everywhere! Anytime! Get faster — "do more with less" mentality means that application development professionals now need to deliver and change applications faster; Mobile - not just another channel, but "the" channel. Must design a user experience that is useful, usable, and desirable in a mobile context of location, locomotion, immediacy, intimacy, and device; 24 by 7 - we expect that service is available round the clock with no downtime
- 10. What can we do about it?
- 11. ©TietoCorporation‹#› Attract talents to IT Make mathematics & natural sciences attractive - foundation for “pure” ICT Programming and algorithmic thinking - introduce at lower grades, at least as part of vocational orientation “Do not lose a single engineering talent”

- 13. ©TietoCorporation‹#› Which leadership style fits more? The foxes love complexity and all the moving parts. They love showing how smart they are by making things so complex that other people can't understand them. Hedgehogs: “I know the world is complex, but we can't function if we don't simplify it.” They simplify a complex world down to a fundamental, simple idea that is essentially right. In the world of leadership the hedgehogs win.
- 14. Thank you!
Hinweis der Redaktion
- Employees: 754 Turnover, EUR: 44,4 M Profit, EUR: 5,26 M
- Innovations happen at crossroads of sciences
- Business knowledge amalgamated with IT skills
- You can do an exceptional job on project management, requirements gathering, architecture, data management, testing, and coding, but if the user experience is poor, your results will be mediocre — or even a complete failure
- Provide services in a modern, flexible and cost-effective way by getting rid of paperwork, establishing business processes according to the latest standards, getting rid of manual activites.
- Get faster - That means changing our process, changing technology, and changing organisation.
- There’s a huge difference between these two. One involves people, and the other one is, well, just technical stuff
- Isaiah Berlin who said there are two types of thinkers: hedgehogs and foxes. The foxes love complexity and all the moving parts. They love showing how smart they are by making things so complex that other people can't understand them. Hedgehogs tend to take the approach of saying, “I know the world is complex, but we can't function if we don't simplify it.” Hedgehogs get one big idea and focus on it. They simplify a complex world down to a fundamental, simple idea that is essentially right.
- Environments characterized by change and disruption No-one can afford Arrogance and regarding success virtually as an entitlement Team moderate their pace by discipline and not conditions
