Writer, computer scientist, entrepreneur, and former university professor, Aguirre hopes to enhance the professional reputations of IT departments everywhere by sharing tips on how IT can be more relevant.
CIOs and IT professionals in general have reputations with other corporate departments that could be vastly improved, according to Raul Cristian Aguirre, founder of Tango/04 Computing Group and a leader in the development of enterprise monitoring software.
“According to MIT Sloan School of Management's research, CIOs speak another language, IT costs are black holes, and risks are big and unknown," Aguirre says. "However, with the right conceptualization and good decisions, it is possible to reverse this situation,” he explains.
“Currently, companies of all sizes and from all sectors are lacking the information and basic visibility to anticipate the threats and understand the opportunities because the usual structure of silos and departments reduces the global vision to such an extent that many decisions are made blindly,” Aguirre says.
Raul Cristian AguirreTo share his ideas about how to avoid these problems, and at the same time increase trust in IT, Aguirre has begun writing a blog that focuses on achieving improved "corporate visibility." The focus is on achieving two goals. On the one hand, Aguirre will highlight the value that IT contributes to business, while on the other he will try to help solve what he perceives to be a problem of "corporate myopia." He believes that improved corporate visibility is an initiative that the IT department is well-positioned to lead. Aguirre will write the blog while continuing to serve as president and CEO of Tango/04.
The blog will not in any way feature his company´s products, he assures, but will try to contribute to the professional growth of CIOs, CSOs (computer security officer) and the IT professional in general. It will focus on the delivery of corporate agility and visibility, which are lacking in many companies, he says.
“The IT industry moves according to fashion, and sometimes fashion doesn't fit right," says Aguirre. During the past 20 years with Tango/04, and almost 30 involved with the IT profession, Aguirre has formed a vision of how to solve certain issues. "As I have always cherished the activity of teaching, I hope I can put that experience into this blog and help IT people advance,” Aguirre says.
