ManMachine – The Computer Human Synergy for Organizations
TARGIT CEO, @MortonSandlykke has a very topical post today, ‘Turning Emotion-based Decisions into Fact-based Decisions’.

Decision-centric dashboards and application lifecycle management with Assure

I’m delighted to announce that we have developed a new partnership to apply this approach in Application Lifecycle Management.
