Maturing IT and Developing Coalitions
As a Senior Director, your scope and reach increase horizontally across the institution. You are tasked with building bridges, developing coalitions, reviewing process, finding efficiencies. You must be skilled with leading across the institution not just within IT. How do you start to do this? First, you must understand your IT organization’s maturity. Maturity is often measured in terms of value. What value does IT bring to our institutions? We start off as a service provider, simply delivering technical solutions but to be truly effective, IT must evolve and mature. We will step you through organizational maturity models and ask you to evaluate your organization. We will focus on how you can become a valued campus partner including how to build coalitions that cross organizational boundaries.
