IT is a bottleneck? Do it yourself!

Show notes

This podcast discusses the global shortage of software developers and presents Citizen Development as a possible solution. Citizen development, the development of applications by business users using low-code/no-code platforms, is presented as a paradigm shift that can improve collaboration between business and IT. Gerhard Friedrich emphasizes the importance of governance and an agile corporate culture for the success of citizen development and warns of the risks of "shadow IT". Success factors lie in the cooperation between business users and IT as well as the right choice of implementation model. Gerhard Friedrich illustrates this using a case study with a business rule engine.
