Being a leader means being prepared to
take risks that enable positive change. In this era of increased
scrutiny into corporate governance, however, expectations have changed.
As the role of IT within organizations continues to grow, and as IT
executives’ responsibilities expand further into the most senior
levels of strategic management, what new obligations and commitments
fall to the CIO? And how does IT fit into the long-term organizational
structure?
These and related questions form the basis for Governance Dilemmas:
IT and the Leadership Agenda, the theme for THE CIO SUMMIT® West
2004. Among the themes that will be addressed by our distinguished roster
of speakers:
• Using networking to improve corporate governance.
• The quest for balance in the area of privacy and protection.
• The compliance challenge — and software solutions.
• Creating the governance edge.
