Running
any sizable organization is a complex undertaking – and
convergence is placing new demands on today’s business leaders.
The CIO’s role has been recast beyond traditional technology management
responsibilities to include leadership in all dimensions of an organization.
How can leadership and commitment be applied to meet successfully the
requirements of today’s business environment and the challenges
of tomorrow? How can business leaders manage complexity?
Join us at THE CIO SUMMIT® West, where these and related questions
will be addressed by some of North America’s foremost IT and business
strategists. The program will provide an opportunity for all delegates
to participate in the creation and sharing of valuable industry experience
through facilitated and focused work groups.
There are four main conference themes:
Collaboration in Delivery: Whether you are looking at outsourcing
all or part of a function or building a team from within, the challenge
in developing successful solutions hinges on working well with others.
How can you best identify and manage the right resources to get the job
done?
Creating a safe and reliable infrastructure for business continuity:
It doesn’t matter if you are protecting customer privacy or
developing a safe, secure and reliable infrastructure, the challenges
often seem insurmountable. But many organizations have been able to achieve
a balance in managing these factors. What are the key techniques? Who
are the industry leaders and why?
Integrating the enterprise: There is no question that many IT initiatives
still have far too many loose ends. Not only is one of the biggest problems
the “disconnected” organization, but linking legacy infrastructure
with a new and often unstable environment continues to be an elusive goal.
How can you get the best value from your IT dollar? What are the keys
to success? Where should you focus your efforts?
Leadership issues – knowledge management and the rapidly changing
workforce: Although they are frequently neglected, the issues to be
faced from the impact of an aging and changing workforce are now a top
priority. Locating and creating an effective knowledge management infrastructure
and integrating organizational, operational and people processes are key
techniques in getting the best value for your investments. Where are the
answers? What must you do?
Who should attend
CEOs, CIOs, CTOs, VPs marketing and sales and other senior executives
interested in an in-depth reflection on these new business priorities.
We are committed to providing a forum for linking business goals with
the IT platform, as well as providing leaders with a unique opportunity
to hear from top industry minds and the opportunity to share experience
and lessons learned from peers.
