How to Implement Measurements to drive value
Improve the "Business of IT" by using a measurement framework and metrics that matter most.
Metrics are important to management. What's not measured cannot be managed. But what should be measured, why and how?
If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, then this session is for you:
not sure what to measure
not sure how to measure
IT metrics don't seem to support business goals
too busy fighting fires to become more proactive
measure too many things already
business/IT goals not measured
priorities focus on noise vs. what's important
customer complaints drive improvements
efficiency, effectiveness, quality not well understood
reduced visibility resulting in loss of control
not sure who needs what level of detail
Learning Objectives:
Metrics validate your IT strategy and vision; provide direction with targets and metrics; justify changes with a means to gauge value-realized; signal when to intervene with corrective actions.
Hear case studies and examples that help you improve alignment, meet compliance and drive service excellence.
Learn the secrets of how measurement frameworks works and take away a roadmap with actionable steps. Let's get IT started.
