Scenario:

You are an IT leader in a specific organization and have determined that a particular technology or management innovation
holds strong value for your organization- To gain senior management approval to begin investing in this technology, you are to
present a briefing of this innovation and its possible implementation to the organization’s CEO and CIO-

Decide on the organization you will “work” for. This may be an organization you currently work for, one you’ve worked for in
the past, or an organization with which you are familiar.

Then you will need to conduct research to determine the state of the art for an area of interest in order to select an innovation-
Google, BusinessWeek, and Wired-com are all excellent sources for scanning the marketplace for new innovations- The
innovation can be either technical (e-g-, a new software application like an ERP) or a management innovation (e-g-, project
management, total quality management)-

The company chosen should be a recognizable company, preferably Canadian, where information can be gathered online-
