ITAM NINJA 🥷

🥷 Did you know? 🐱👤 Ninjas may seem mysterious, but the origin of their name is not. The word ninja derives from the Japanese characters nin and ja. Nin initially meant "persevere," but over time it developed the extended meanings "conceal" and "move stealthily." In Japanese, ja is the combining form of sha, meaning "person." 🐱👓 Ninjas originated in the mountains of ancient Japan as practitioners of ninjutsu, a martial art sometimes called "the art of stealth" or "the art of invisibility." They often served as military spies and were trained in disguise, concealment, geography, meteorology, medicine, and also the arts of combat and self-defense we associate with modern martial arts. 🐱💻 Popular legends still identify them with espionage and assassinations, but modern ITAM ninjas are most likely to train in: - Management Consulting - IT Asset Management (ITAM) - Software Asset Management (SAM) - Vendor Negotiation Techniques - Microsoft/Oracle/SAP/IBM software licensing - ISO/IEC 19770 ITAM standards and FinOps ninjutsu to improve their customer's ITAM/SAM outcomes, software consumption fitness and self-defense skills against licensing compliance audits from software publishers.
