Abstract Deadline: June 16, 2021

Technology projects of all shapes and sizes fail at a dizzying rate – up 
to 75% for ERP projects and 95% for product innovation projects. Why 
can't we learn from these mistakes? Are the causes that mysterious? Or 
can we learn from our failures and develop some best practices to at 
least reduce the probability of failure?

Before managers and executives launch new technology projects they 
should anticipate why their projects might fail and craft solutions 
before they spend millions or even tens of millions of dollars to 
improve their technology infra-structures, transform their business 
processes or implement new enterprise software applications.

An upcoming issue of Cutter Business Technology Journal, with Guest 
Editor and Cutter Fellow Steve Andriole

https://www.cutter.com/experts/steve-andriole

, will address the recurring problem of project failure and what factors 
play a major role in an organization's ability to deliver projects, 
programs, and business strategies successfully.

Article ideas may include, but are not limited, to the following:

What role do talent assessments, team dynamics, executive support, and 
corporate culture play in successful project delivery?

How does inexperience with major technology projects and weak corporate 
technology leadership play a role in project failure? What type of 
leadership is needed?

What type of executive support including that from stakeholders and 
sponsors is necessary?

How does an inadequate internal or extended talent pool for technology 
projects add to project failure? How can it be addressed? How can we 
attract and retain digital talent?

How can a team of both digital and non-digital employees improve 
problem-solving?

How can a weak or non-existent technology culture feed into project 
failure? How can barriers to cultural change be overcome?

How can companies best attract, retain and develop talent - 
benefits/compensation/advancement/work location?

What type of decision-making culture is necessary to succeed?

How can we ensure the right teams are recruited? What skills are 
necessary?

How does training play into project success? What investments in 
learning & development are most crucial for executives to endorse?
