There is no ideal structure that dictates the optimum number of IT organizations an enterprise should have.

• On one hand, business units, geographies, and agencies want a high degree of autonomy and control to meet their strategic goals.
• On the other hand, the business must be optimized to achieve enterprise-wide strategic goals.

There is, however, a right structure for your enterprise that drives the most value out of information and technology (I&T).

In this webinar, Donna Scott (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner VP Distinguished Analyst will help CIOs leverage a decision framework to design their optimum enterprise I&T structure to deliver that value and achieve the optimum level of autonomy, interoperability, innovation, and operational excellence.

Discussion Topics:

• How the perceived value of I&T drives the degree of centralization or decentralization
• How a high degree of commonality drives greater centralization and wide variations drive decentralization
• How to diagnose I&T structure and operating model as the barriers to achieving optimum value

PDU Of The Day 10th Anniversary!!!
We have published THOUSANDS of Professional Development Opportunities since our launch January 1st 2011.

These articles reflect the interests of Project Managers, Business Analysts, and Agile Professionals from over 150 countries.

In the last two weeks of 2020, we are publishing some of our readers & editors favorite recorded opportunities, as a special treat for our readers!

Each of these webinars is available online!

Project Managers Face 2Competing Imperatives:

1. To be as fast and efficient as possible, and
2. To improve what you do and how you do it.

The first one is about being on budget, on time and on target. The second one is about doing that better than you did it last time, perhaps radically better. In other words innovating the products you develop and the processes you use to do that.

In this webinar you will learn a simple intuitive framework—a mindset—for thinking about your work, that enables that innovation. A switch that will make you and your team more adaptive, resilient and resourceful, as you enhance rather than compromise your efficiency.

In This Session You will:

• Learn to recognize patterns of thinking and behavior that promote innovation, as well as the patterns that undermine it
• Learn how to shift your mindset to become a more effective innovator and optimize the way you and your team think about the challenges you face
• Gain actionable research-based insights into how to maximize the value you create
• Discover strategies you can apply throughout your professional and personal life, to handle any challenge more effectively

This approach has been demonstrated to radically improve the probability of achieving exceptional business outcomes.
