With news of the conflict in the Middle East and renewed concerns about large-scale terrorism, it is difficult to consider CM an important topic. Surely, efforts to prevent anthrax attacks and aid the victims of terror should be our focus. But our work as CM practitioners does impact Homeland security at many levels and it is certainly an appropriate time to reflect on what we do and the relevance of our work in terms of Corporate and Civic responsibilities. Corporate responsibility includes helping the American workforce to be more efficient, including preventing software defects, improving software quality and reuse of code. Read on if you would like to how CM affects the world we live in on both a local and global scale.
