Well, I work for IBM and one thing about IBM is structures and the matrix and the vast network of folks that are connected together. I remember Susan Curry saying in one of the Biztech meets about how she advises everyone to include “managing the IBM matrix” as a key point in our CVs. I just learnt today that there has been a major restructuring and that many folks’ managers have been/are going to be changed. Now IBM is a manager driven company and the manager or rather your people manager is the only clear connection you have in this matrix.
