Who should attend: CIOs

Description:

Business leaders target globalization to deliver performance that spans geographic and organizational boundaries. What globalization means for CIOs is not simple — they have to help their firms deliver optimized global performance while meeting local needs and responding to constant business change — all while helping keep business innovation alive and well. Making this happen requires CIOs to handle the global-local matrix through key global functions, connect global capabilities and local needs, use technologies that enable both integration and agility, and employ communication to create and maintain trust.

Agenda:

• What business drivers are driving IT globalization?
• What is the CIO's role in enterprise globalization?
• Which IT processes are most challenged by globalization — and how do CIOs best address these challenges?
• How do CIOs balance global efficiencies with local responsiveness?
• Case studies: What works? What doesn't?
