Glimpsing Your IT Future
Don't expect to be part of an "IT Department." As a 21st Century technology professional, your future - and most likely your desk - will be deeply rooted in the business, and your title will likely be scrubbed of any and all hint of computers, databases, software development languages or data networks. |

Building a Customer-Centric IT Strategy
You're the new CIO at a household-name, consumer brand. You've inherited legacy infrastructure, and out-of-date business processes. Where do you begin? How do you engage your peers, and the CEO, to not only modernize, but create a better customer experience? In this case study, Michael Israel will describe just how he did it -- and the ways he embeds himself in the business to not only observe customers, but pioneer ways IT will improve their experience.

Balancing IT and the Business
Today's enterprise looks different than the enterprise of the past. The business wants to be able to work from places other than the office. There are controls and regulations to think about, as well as increased pressure on IT to prove its value. Employees want to publish information on blogs and wikis and have sites where they can communicate and collaborate with their peers and colleagues. While the CIO would like to support and embrace this evolving enterprise, there are challenges to confront - security risks, privacy issues, employee-managed IT. A solid governance program can help ensure that business needs are satisfied while not compromising the data, information, or integrity of your employees or corporation.

Building Video Collaboration into Your Unified Communications Network
High performance companies know video is becoming the killer app on Unified Communication networks and the secret to remaining globally competitive. In a globalized world of outsourcing, offshoring, strategic partnering, telecommuting, and governance, video collaboration is the best way to bring dispersed employees, customers and partners together. IDC reports video collaboration also delivers on average 30% increased productivity and 20% faster time to market across organizations. Polycom CIO Glenn Noga shares best practices for easily up-leveling your voice over IP network to support video on demand as well as some of the ROI metrics you'll see as a result. We will also hear from industry veteran Chris DiFiglia with Bear Stearns on how video collaboration increases productivity in the highly competitive world of investment banking.

Creating a Risk-Taking, Business-Thinking Culture
Unlike their predecessors, today's CIOs will fail in a risk-averse IT organization. Moreover, they need to find and reward risk-takers who can help foster a culture of business-savvy thinkers. What does it take to move an IT culture in this direction? How to you modulate the risk to create success and prevent miscalculations? And what are the best incentives? David Koosis will describe just how it's done at the New York City Department of Correction.
