Despite decades of methodological advances and trillions of dollars in global investment, IT system developments, operations and modernizations continue to fail at remarkably consistent rates. This talk argues that these failures are not primarily technical, but systemic, arising from a persistent neglect of human-centered engineering. Risk increases as software systems grow in complexity. Humans lose […]
