Asking the Wrong Questions

I've written an article on the subject of nonprofit technology planning, entitled Asking the Wrong Questions, for the inaugural issue of N-TEN Connect, the association's new newsletter. Using NPower and TechSoup as my case studies, I find that our planning methods are technocentric, are serving our constituents poorly, and are in desperate need of reinvention. We keep saying that we are promoting technology in service of organizational mission, but I don't think that's true nearly as often as it ought to be. I'm teaching an online workshop later this week on the subject.
