Class was all about whether or not you are valuable in an organization. We covered competencies that a person needs to have in order to have a meaningful, valuable interaction between two parties that are working together. I think this benefits the class in that it gets us thinking about what each of us brings to the table and what areas to work on in order to be successful in our careers.
For much of the class, I had a difficult time understanding how this topic relates to a class on information technology. After a little thought, however, I realize that it comes down to the ultimate "motto" of the class that it is the integration of business and technology that drives innovation.
One of the most important parts of business is understanding what everyone brings to the table. What are my competencies? What are the competencies of my co-workers? What are the competencies of my business? How can all of these things be brought together to provide the most value to my business, my customers' businesses, and my partners' businesses. Understanding these things and cultivating the right personal competencies can help me to be successful in business. I'm assuming that future classes will help me to understand the technology side of things as well, so that I can ultimately put the two together to drive innovation.
