Strategy for 2009 and CIO challanges

According to recent McKinsey Quarterly Survey report....

"Executives are concerned that a new focus on near-term challenges may cause this year’s planning process to overlook long-term trends or preexisting strategies, according to the results of a McKinsey Quarterly survey on strategic planning."

As we all know IT projects are driven by the business needs. Business Drivers are key to IT projects. CIO/CTO will have tremendous challenge in aligning IT with the enterprise's business strategy under the current scenario. Architect's challenge will be establishing tactical plan and adjusting it with the strategic vision and plan. Enterprise will start thinking about or revisit their SOA and agile IT infrastructure thought, if they have not yet started.
