Why to set up a Portal?
"I am a big believer in forcing change on largeinstitutions just for the sake of forcing change.The longer an organization stays intact, the lesssuccessful it is. I've been absolutely convincedthat you've got to blow things up and start overagain every few years, and that puts a whole newface on people's jobs. It gets people focusedexternally rather than internally."
says: IBM chief executive Louis V. Gerstner
