played catch up

English to Russian Marketing Marketing
A lot has changed in the 10 years since Ken Johnsen joined PepsiAmericas' IT function. For years the department played catch up, shutting down legacy systems and creating a new company-wide IT platform while transforming itself into a true business partner. Johnsen, chief information officer since 2001, talked with Refresh about the culture change it took to shift the focus away from "technology" and onto "information" where, he believes, real opportunity lies.
