How has your organization dealt with rogue IT services?

We haven't had a problem with rogue IT issues because our employees know that they can come talk to us if they have an idea for doing things better. It wasn't easy to teach these skills - managers in general are hesitant to accept anything they don't already understand - but the effort we put in has definitely paid off.

If they can prove something will work better, we'll accept it - and otherwise, they don't even bother.
