< + > IT is Easy – Fun Friday

Happy Friday everyone!  I hope you had an amazing week and are ready for a great weekend.

I’m not sure how funny this edition of Fun Friday is for people.  As a former techguy myself, this graphic below definitely hit home when I saw it: (Note: If the graphic is clipeed, you can see the full one here)

I’m still chewing on that last phrase “The Best IT Work is Invisible!”

It’s the truest statement in the world and yet it’s what makes the job so challenging.  Invisible work doesn’t get rewarded.  However, that’s exactly what you want from your IT department.  It’s even worse with healthcare security.  Ideally, you never know your security person’s name (a little exaggerated, but you get the point).  This is changing as the IT solutions make more of a clinical and financial impact on healthcare organizations.  However, even then you need to capture the data that shows the impact.  Otherwise, it will just be invisible.

What do you think of the graphic above?  Does it illustrate well much of the work IT does?
