Those "Business People" - they just don't get me! - how to talk IT to non-IT leaders
Once upon a time, in a distant and faraway land, there were two kingdoms: The County of IT and The Principality of Business.
These two sovereign realms were situated closely on the same island, yet they rarely engaged in communication due to their distinct languages.
"The inhabitants of The County of IT," lamented the Prince of The Principality of Business, "are excessively fixated on minute details. They fail to comprehend the grander picture - our responsibility lies in the well-being of our people! We must attract investments to foster economic growth and, ultimately, improve the lives of our citizens."
