Gartner - CIO Summit 2007 - (Page 6) Agenda For the full agenda visit gartner.com/us/cio Track 1 Transformation: Building the Value Today’s top executives know that successful business growth and transformation require a business strategy integrated with IT. Business transformation can no longer occur with IT as an afterthought. The business environment is constantly and rapidly changing. Globalization, sustainability, new sources of competitive advantage and alternative business models all demand attention. Building value from all these elements of transformation is the heart of this track. Workshop Sessions (Each session consists of a 30-minute analyst presentation followed by a peer-exchange discussion) Green IT: Mapping the Environmental Action Plan Environmental issues are now among the top action items for enterprises; sustainability, climate change and electronic waste are among the priorities in political, consumer and business agendas. This session looks at the imperatives for action and IT’s impact on the environment. Value Dialogues: A New Language for the Business Value of IT No enterprise in the 21st century runs for long without capable IT. Because IT’s value is inseparable from the value of the business model it supports, difficulties arise when attempting to measure IT value purely in terms of IT investment. Theme Keynote – Transformation: Building the Value New Demands on IT: Business Challenges and Model Shifts 2007 CEO surveys show priorities are not so technology-influenced as previous years. But beneath the surface lie complex business challenges, implying a need for new IT-enabled solutions. We assess the hidden opportunities and find that the CIO’s future is not pre-packaged. • Beyond quarterly results – what are the deeper issues faced by CEOs today? • How can technology help solve these business problems and build new value? • What agenda change will that require of IT leaders? The Changing Shape of IT Organizations Every IT organization faces unavoidable transition to new roles and new functions. Some are already transforming to business change agents. Others are re-evaluating their boundaries and roles as brokers of multi-sourced service delivery. There are several destinations and several road maps for you to consider. How to Understand the Drivers of Business Leaders Smart business leaders are constantly seeking new ways to create and exploit sustainable advantage. It’s the surprises that create the value and what drives them isn’t usually obvious. “IT contribution will be cited in the top three success factors by at least half of topperforming businesses; IT barriers will be cited in the top three failure factors by at least half of lowest performers.” Mark Raskino, Gartner Who Should Own Technology: Workers or the Enterprise? A flood of ever-more-powerful consumer devices impacts nearly every enterprise. Conventional principles concerning ownership, security, control and creativity are challenged. Doing nothing is simply not an option – the situation must be faced. http://agendabuilder.gartner.com/cios2/WebPages/sessionlist.aspx?menuItem=2 http://agendabuilder.gartner.com/cios2/WebPages/SessionList.aspx?Track=35 http://agendabuilder.gartner.com/cios2/WebPages/SessionList.aspx?Track=35
