In this Executive Update, Tom Grant explores one of the biggest requirements challenges: the lack of information about the business context behind the demand for new software and the adoption of it. Without this context, changing the requirements media is about as meaningful as the choice between reading War and Peace as a novel or as a comic book adaptation. If you don't know anything about Europe in the age of Napoleon, much of War and Peace will make little to no sense, regardless of format.

Mark Greville proposes an alternative to the command-and-control theater that is governance (particularly technology governance) in most large organizations. He offers examples of business-model-assassinating decisions from previous generations and lays out a path toward a scalable, sustainable, useful governance approach that avoids the bureaucracy typically associated with governance. The article explores decision dynamics and proposes the method of public self-governance to break up complex governance structures, eliminate governance body queues, accelerate change, and drive accountability and transparency via a modern, decentralized approach.
