Overview: When you talk with most IT Organizations about Financial Management, the discussion quickly turns into one of budgets and cost-cutting. But that is not the way it should be. I have seen an IT Organization receive approval for a $50M increase in the middle of a corporate wide expense reduction. How? Simple, they were able to clearly demonstrate how their IT budget was being spent in support of specific Business Initiatives.
When a new Business Initiative arose that required funding, IT let the Business decide where to cut. Instead IT received additional funds to support the new Business. You will learn the basics on creating a Financial Management system that links IT spending directly to approved Business Initiatives. It will also teach you how to change the discussion from cost-cutting to business functional support.
Why Should you Attend: If you are interested in discovering a better way to negotiate funding with your Business, you should attend this webinar.
