Landmine #5: The IT Team Nobody Invited

What's running inside your company that IT doesn't know exists? Mayra and CP explore why unsanctioned apps and tools that facilitate workarounds spread. People use them when sanctioned tools are too slow or too rigid for real work, not out of defiance. They also cover what happens when AI starts connecting to those hidden tools. You'll leave able to name at least one unsanctioned tool your own team depends on. Shadow IT isn't rebellion. It's a symptom of sanctioned tools failing to keep up.
