WEEK 2 : IT and the CIO in the Digital World
There is a gap between what we observed about IT in companies and what is actually needed. Some best practice examples will be given.
WEEK 3 : Steer the Balance Sheet
The first new role of the CIO in the digital world is to manage both the P&L and the balance sheet to position IT as a business partner.
WEEK 4 : Market and Sell Products
Being a business partner starts with deciding what IT sells and what IT does not sell.
WEEK 5 : Run the Factories
Building applications and running operations require the adoption of a "factory mind-set."
WEEK 6 : Manage Human Resources
In a digital world, “strategic workforce management” is the name of the game.
WEEK 7 : Transform or Disappear
In this final module, we will see that IT must continually transform itself to adapt to an ever-changing environment. We will take a look at how that should be done: there are rules to make this happen.
