Organizational Capability
This alignment mechanism deals with the administrative processes for cre-
ating the required human skills and the capability for supporting and shap-
ing the business strategy.
Defining human skills is more than the specification of traditional job
descriptions for hiring or promotion; it also involves the articulation of how
human skills support and complement the available or potential IT capa-
bilities. Neither technology nor human skills alone would be effective as
they fail to leverage important complementary sources of capabilities. For
instance, the definition of the skills of a customer service manager will vary
greatly, depending on how the customer support process is defined.
