Michael GerrardToday’s CIOs and IT managers are under increasing pressure to be and act like ‘business leaders’. The future promises to be even more challenging as new IT management paradigms begin to emerge. This session takes a pragmatic approach to examining what this will mean to you, identifying what competencies and behaviors will be required and how you can acquire them.
Key Issues:
  • What new challenges will IT management face and what leadership skills will be required to address them?
  • How can these skills and competencies be acquired by the current and next generation of IT leaders?
