Skeet Shooting in the Dark!

The role of the Business in IT Service Management

The business view of IT is often unflattering. IT flailing in the wind, trying to provide services that just don’t quite measure up. Slow to respond, always reacting - delivering value is like skeet shooting in the dark. Occasionally we hit the mark!

What role must the business take in improving this? The business has to interface effectively with the IT Service organization and significant improvements always require changes to the way the business operates.

Join John Krogh from Service Management Art for a unique and informative look at the Relationship between IT and the business. John will be exploring questions such as:

  • What can the business do to improve relationships with IT?
  • How can IT be agile and ready to create or modify services?
  • How can the business leverage IT’s knowledge for innovation?
