Case 3 discusses the MediaCorp and ITServCorp cases from an organizational viewpoint, and a common thread in the case is the connection between the environment and corporate interests. In Jason Pontin’s video, he asks the question “Why hasn’t technological innovations brought solutions to the world’s biggest problems…” He provides an insight that technological solutions need to meet four criteria and be managed by leaders with multiple competencies.
After watching the video, answer the following question in 2-3 pages and support your discussion with 2-3 outside references.
How can Pontin’s ideas help MediaCorp build the IT Hosting Services and ITServCorp build its product development back in-house?
