Q4: To what extent does Cognizant’s ‘C2’ programme fit the firm’s environment and what problems might it encounter in developing this programme further? In response to the increasing uncertainty posed by its client demands and its ability to hire key personnel, Cognizant increased the number of divisions and expanded its international locations with development centres in 15 cities across 5 different countries, and sales and marketing offices in the U.S. Europe and Asia (Eccles et al, 2011).

Furthermore, C2 provided process guidance on best practise for solution delivery in specific contexts. This was aimed at helping Cognizant maintain a high level of service and also helped provide standardised methods of delivery in the face of increasing uncertainty of individual client needs. Additionally, prior to introducing TIB, there was a feeling of ‘disconnectedness’ among Cognizant employees working on client site in comparison to the strong culture developed in India (Eccles et al, 2011). This disconnectedness between India based employees and those located elsewhere may have been exacerbated through departmental diversification on an international scale. C2 will have further helped the preservation of Cognizant’s culture in the face of international expansion by increasing employee interaction across borders and locations. Whilst C2 was a practical solution to problems of coordinating the flow of information to and from clients and between employees, the solution was not perfect and problems are likely to arise. Cognizant prides itself on its ability to deliver client centric solutions and the introduction of process guidance to solution delivery is likely, in time, to reduce the level of customisation offered to clients as employees become too heavily reliant on predefined routines. Furthermore, the creation of virtual communities may lead to technology resources

Secondly, in the uncertainty avoidance Nandy made the Indian employees participate in the hiring of locals and in suggesting where locals would be most useful, which can lower the uncertainty in the current staffs’ minds threatened because of the new members to some extent (Wipro Technologies Europe B, 2015). At the same time, Nandy made a clear division of responsibilities for the different employees based on the India and Europe (Wipro Technologies Europe A, 2015). For example, the European should build the favourable relationship between the clients and India-base Wipro people, so this is an effective measure to decline the uncertainty in the European business (Wipro Technologies Europe B, 2015).

As per the 14th Annual Global CEO Survey by Price Waterhouse Cooper for the year 2011, the need had been identified to bridge the gap of global skills as one of the biggest concerns, specifically for companies considering attraction, recruitment, development and retention of talents across the globe (Moran, 2014). Costly mistakes, frustration, and confusion are the main consequences of absence of global skills mainly because of ignorance regarding the effect of culture across the work place. This is because ignorance of culture differences result in unproductivity across the organization (Latimer, 2012).

The coursework I have completed through the Distance Educational Technology Masters Program at the University of Alaska Southeast (UAS), has immersed me in educational technology research supported by collegial discussions. Through the supervised field-based activities from the UAS program and my ongoing professional activities, I have developed a shared vision for the comprehensive integration of technology. Technology integration has been my priority focus academically and professionally. As I have developed a classroom environment conducive to the realization of my technology integration vision, I have shared my vision with families and educators in my school, district, and state.
