Business-focused IT and Service Excellence (Second Edition)

Jäsenhinta 25.00 €
978-1-902505-88-6

Achieving service excellence remains the goal of every IT department and organisation around the world, and it is increasingly vital to the on-going success of business at every level. Yet despite this growing inter-dependence, there exist major differences between what IT understands about business requirements, and what businesses expects from IT.

Author David Miller argues that this "perception gap" remains the largest single obstacle to achieving true service excellence, and that if this gap is ever to be bridged, it is crucial that IT professionals become more aware of the needs and challenges being faced by the businesses they seek to serve.

Business-Focused IT and Service Excellence provides that bridge. Designed to give IT professionals a thorough understanding of their business colleagues and customers, it sets ambitious new goals for IT service delivery and demonstrates how to achieve them.

IT Enabled Business Change; Successful Management

Jäsenhinta 26.00 €
9781902505916

The high profile failure of major IT-related projects in both private and public sectors underlines the need for stringent change management.

As businesses increasingly look to IT to enable that change, Sharm Manwani examines the types of business change processes that involve the use of IT, from the reasons organisations change the way they work, to how that change is identified, managed and implemented.

The structure follows a new IT-enabled business change lifecycle which focuses on strategic alignment and delivering benefits rather than implementing a technology solution.

All those involved in organisational change need to understand the pitfalls and the critical success factors. The potential audience therefore covers a wide range of business and IT executives, managers, professionals and expert users.

The main desired outcome of this book is that it helps those who are involved in IT-enabled business change projects to understand the issues and to be more successful.


IT Financial Management

Jäsenhinta 40.00 €
ISBN: 9789087535018
Julkaisuvuosi: 2009

It is now accepted that IT functions are a fundamental part of the competitive business model. Instead of simply offering services IT must ‘create value´ for the business. This practical title describes the strong financial skills that IT managers must have in order to support:
- Operations: Finance departments rely heavily on IT managers being able to identify, track and measure costs - sometimes at a very granular level
- Budgeting: the very technical nature of IT operations means that budgeting can be more complex than many other areas
- Project Delivery: large technical project deliveries means that costs can be correspondingly complex to account for
- Business Modeling; pricing models rely heavily on IT managers skills and accuracy. Where one service supports many commercial offerings a strong model is needed to apportion costs appropriately
- Investment and business cases: a sound understanding of the financial contribution the IT assets make to the overall business is critical to gain support for ongoing investment

This outstanding title covers the main financial concepts that managers need to be familiar with in order for IT to take its proper senior place as a contributor to the business. It assumes a basic level of financial understanding and builds on the techniques required almost daily; therefore it is overwhelmingly practical and based on real world scenarios. Not only are the techniques fully described but issues such as
- roles,
- implementation,
- daily management and even
- tooling
are detailed.

Tämä kirja on kertomus siitä, miten pesunkestävä rockmies päätyi neuvottelemaan miljoonarahoituksista liituraitapukuisten lontoolaispankkiirien toimistoihin ja pitämään kansainvälisiin konferensseihin PowerPoint-esityksiä professoreille ja huippujohtajille. Se on kuvaus uusmedian hulluista vuosista, jolloin kovapalkkaisia ammattilaisia haettiin Aku Ankan ja roolipelilehtien kautta ja vapaat työajat tarkoittivat, että töitä tehdään kelloon katsomatta, energiajuomien ja pizzataksin voimalla. Alalle rynnineet pikkupojat puhuivat kymmenistä miljoonista kuin leivästä.
Wapitissa oltiin luomassa radikaalisti uusia toimintamalleja, niin matkapuhelimen käytön kuin yrityskulttuurin suhteen. Ja siitä mitä tästä kaikesta opimme; emme mitään.
Mato Valtonen käy läpi matkan alun voitonvarmoista brainstormingeista lopun epätoivoisiin ponnisteluihin hakea rahoitusta markkinoilta, joilla koko wap-kirjainyhdistelmä oli muutamassa kuukaudessa muodostunut kirosanaksi. Matkassa mukana alan kiintotähdet, Antti Piiposta Linus Torvaldsiin.

2011

Luovuus on työkalumme ongelmien ratkomiseen, tavoitteiden saavuttamiseen, kehitykseen sekä kilpailijoiden takanamme pitämiseen.Suomen kysytyimpiin luovuudesta luennoiviin kuuluva Mato Valtonen sekä ansioitunut saksalainen näyttelijä, muusikko ja koomikko Michael Gaedt löivät ajatuksensa yhteen ja lähestyvät nyt aihetta kovin erilaisesta näkökulmasta, jossa luovuutta käsitellään hieman ironisestikin pelkkänä tuotteena - kuten pesukonetta tai leivänpaahdinta.Sinun luovuutesi - omistajan ohjekirja on käyttöopas tuotteelle jonka jo omistat: aivosi, sekä niiden kyky yhdistellä ja sekoitella kaikkea nähtyä, kuultua tai tunnettua. Valitettavasti sinut on saatettu tähän elämään ilman ohjekirjaa. Asia on nyt korjattu. Tekemisesi ja tekemättä jättämisesi puretaan osiin ja kasataan jälleen tavalla, jossa mennään mekaanisesti todella iholle.

The main body of the book introduces the five main titles with an introduction and clearly laid out summary of objectives, practice, key elements, roles and responsibilities and service performance.

In addition, a complete service catalogue schematic is provided and the service portfolio pyramid, which is unique to this book, is introduced showing how all the pieces of the puzzle fit together.
