Performance-Driven Organisation |
| |
 |
Paul Henaghan
Senior Vice President - Asia, Software AG |
| |
As operations and markets become increasingly fragmented, the IT organization is uniquely positioned to bind the company together and augment its collective intellect. IT leaders must assume the challenge of helping their organisations manage through the recession. This opens the door for IT to play a pivotal role in measuring, monitoring and improving the business to become a performance-driven organization.
This presentation will help IT leaders understand how to enhance and extend their organization’s IT capabilities to support the corporate strategic direction and also help set it. In doing so, it enables IT to move away from being perceived as overhead to showcasing its true value-add as a strategic business partner. |
