The Future IT Shop
We all want technology to have a seat at the strategic table of the institution. But how do we get there? How do you shift perception in a complex institution with silos and fiefdoms so they embrace IT as the tip of the sword, and not the cleanup crew for bad decisions? In this working session we’ll tackle discussion around barriers to digital transformation, challenges to silo’d technology, and strategies to integrate and standardize data, and design a staffing strategy rooted in reality.
