Summary

Technology is a differentiator that drives growth. As a result, tech budgets shouldn’t be built to manage cost — they should be built to grow. Shifting the budgetary narrative like this helps technology transform from a line item to a differentiator that delivers revenue, operating profit, and net income. This is known as growth accounting.
