How To Maximize Your Training ROI
Paul Wilkinson, Director, GamingWorksBV
Despite attaining numerous ITIL/ITSM certificates, many organizations still struggle to achieve value from their ITIL training investment. Getting a certificate is the basic building block from which to start, as it provides basic understanding and common terminology. But how can you ensure that the investment results in sustainable behavior change and bottom line impact on your performance? Join Paul, a conference favorite to see how one organization used the 8-fields approach to achieve measurable, demonstrable improvements within six months.

Session 2: Tuesday 19 February 14:00 – 15:00
Business & IT Alignment: What It Really Means
Paul Wilkinson, Director, GamingWorksBV
For many years now, business and IT alignment has been a continual top ten issue for managers. With the growing importance of IT and the explosion in emerging technologies, organizations can no longer afford to fail to align IT and business. However according to research and survey results, current approaches don’t seem to be working! Why has the problem existed for so long? What are the reasons? Join Paul, creator of the Grab@Pizza™ IT business alignment simulation game, as he explores some of the key reasons why the alignment continuously fails, based upon the results of global ABC (Attitude, Behavior and Culture) surveys. He’ll also share with you a case study of how one organization gained huge improvements. If you’re struggling with this issue, this session is not to be missed. You’ll walk away with some pragmatic tips to apply.
Please mark PINK13 in your agenda and our sessions.
