Edge, Leverage, Trust
A multidimensional community working together to create One IU IT – a project at a time.
The Value of Trust
"When people honor each other, there is a trust established that leads to synergy, interdependence, and deep respect. Both parties make decisions and choices based on what is right, what is best, what is valued most highly."
--Blaine Lee
Building Trust
Trust is established and sustained by the intentional creation and nurturing of relationships.

Some Guiding Principles
• All in IT (core or edge) are working together to support the missions of IU
• “Leverage” and “edge” are not necessarily defined by geography or services
• Campuses and departments have common goals but unique needs
• The journey to trust is incremental and intentional
• Discussions should include broad representation
• The IT environment should be intelligent, ubiquitous and agnostic (Chuck Aikman)
Desirable Outcomes
• The establishment of common standards and best practices
• A collaborative and collegial environment that encourages open and honest, but respectful, communication
• A university-wide professional development process where ethical standards, career paths, and tone-and-attitude are addressed
• An agile IT community that can take full advantage of unique opportunities
• Cost reduction by leveraging what should be leveraged
A Scenario
• Today – Worst Case: Go it alone• Today – Best Case: Inquire• Future Vision: Edge, Leverage & Trust
