Summary "The IT department can, and should, contribute to overall business strategy. However, it is often perceived simply as an internal supplier, and as a cost centre which remains unconnected to the organization's strategic priorities. IT managers face the challenge of changing perceptions, embedding the IT department in the corporate strategy, marketing its capabilities, managing projects and budgets, and maintaining relations with the rest of the company. These complex challenges can lead to a very short shelf life for many CIOs. Staying the Course as a CIO: How to overcome the trials and challenges of IT Leadership sets out the typical issues which affect the IT function, and offers practical advice on managing them successfully. IT managers and information officers will be given the tools to enable themselves and their department to realize their full potential."-- Provided by publisher
