Is Shadow IT a sign of innovation or a symptom of institutional short-termism? This episode explores the hidden costs of side-door technology projects in higher education, drawing on three provocative essays about GenAI-fueled coding, technical debt, and the erosion of enterprise IT governance. Listeners will learn why sustainable transformation requires more than speed or tools; it demands discipline, strategic alignment, and the resolve to simplify before building.
