Before planning the future, you must understand where you stand today. A current state assessment: Reveals inefficiencies, redundancies, and risks; Identifies foundational capabilities to retain or upgrade; Helps prioritize transformation efforts realistically; Prevents overestimation of capabilities or readiness
IT Strategy and Planning Step 2: Understand Future Business Strategy
IT does not operate in isolation—its entire value lies in enabling and accelerating business outcomes. A future-oriented IT strategy must be tightly coupled with the corporate strategy. Without this alignment, IT risks becoming a cost center rather than a strategic enabler.
IT Strategy and Planning Step 1: Assemble a Cross-Functional Team
Build a high-impact team that brings together diverse perspectives from across IT and the business to ensure the IT strategy is comprehensive, feasible, and aligned with enterprise goals.
IT Strategy and Planning: A Practical Framework with Real-World Detail
IT strategy and planning is the process of aligning an organization’s technology investments, capabilities, and resources with its overall business goals. It defines how IT will support and drive business success over a specific time frame (often 1-5 years), ensuring the organization is prepared for technological changes, innovation, and competitive advantage.
Unity in Practice 0013 – Physical Material 2D Introduction
In Unity, a 2D Physics Material (also called Physics Material 2D) is used to define how two 2D objects interact during collisions in the 2D physics engine (Box2D).
Unity in Practice 0012 – Blend Tree in Unity
A Blend Tree is a feature within Unity’s Animator Controller that allows you to smoothly transition between multiple animations based on one or more parameters (like speed, direction, or vertical velocity). It’s ideal for creating fluid and natural character movement.
Unity in Practice 0011 – Player Jump with Ground Check in Unity
To implement a player jump with a condition and ground check in Unity (using C#), you’ll typically use Rigidbody physics and a ground detection method like Physics.Raycast, Collider overlap checks, or Unity’s CharacterController.isGrounded.
Unity in Practice 0010 – Flipping a 2D Character Horizontally in Unity
To fix the left run animation that appears incorrect, you generally don’t need a separate animation for left movement. Instead, use sprite flipping to mirror the existing run animation.
Unity in Practice 0009 – How to Use Sprite Sheets in Unity for 2D Animation and UI
In Unity, a sprite sheet is a single image file that contains multiple smaller graphics (sprites), often used for 2D animation, character states, or tilemaps. It helps improve performance and makes organizing related sprites easier.
Unity in Practice 0008 – Encapsulation and Inspector Access with Unity’s [SerializeField]
In Unity, the [SerializeField] attribute is used to make private fields visible and editable in the Inspector window of the Unity Editor. This allows developers to keep variables encapsulated (i.e., not publicly accessible in code) while still customizing them in the Editor.
Unity in Practice 0007 – Very First Unity C# Code to Move and Jump a 2D Ball
This tutorial walks you through creating a simple Unity project where a 2D ball can move left/right and jump using keyboard input. It’s perfect for beginners who want to learn how to work with physics, input detection, and scripting in Unity.
Unity in Practice 0006 – Very first C# code to demonstrate how to capture input
As outlined in Unity in Practice 0005 – Create C# Script – Wonderful Code See , we created a Ball.cs C# script which allows us to capture keyboard input within the script.
Unity in Practice 0005 – Create C# Script
When you create a new C# script in Unity (e.g., BallScript.cs), Unity automatically generates a default template to help you get started.

Unity in Practice 0004 – Unity Rigidbody
In Unity, a Rigidbody is a component that enables an object to interact with the physics engine. It allows GameObjects to respond to gravity, forces, collisions, and other physical effects, making movement and interaction more realistic.
Unity in Practice 0003 – Unity Editor Windows and Tools
Unity’s Editor is made up of modular windows and tools that can be rearranged, docked, and customized to suit your workflow. Understanding them is essential for efficient development.
