We want to be Iron Man with his suit, Captain America with his shield or Wonder Woman her bracelets of submission. But as we become adults and come to grips with reality, our definition of what it takes to be "super" is completely different. In fact, in business, we use "super" to describe leaders who are...

In years past, many corporate IT departments and their finance departments operated as independent fiefdoms, which could often lead to inter-departmental clashes and wasteful spending. Many IT professionals would gladly throw every possible resource into developing a great new technology or application, but there are limits to what any company can spend on research and development before the bottom line starts to suffer. As a result, many modern enterprises, whether or not...
