Abstract:

Strengthening individual and organizational development effectiveness is a key responsibility of today's higher ed IT leaders. Our organizations are larger and more complex than ever before, and we must work collaboratively with many others to accomplish institutional goals. IT service quality and effective delivery depend on a highly effective and functional IT organization. Our projects and services require working effectively in cross-functional teams to ensure alignment with the institutional mission.

This workshop will present rationales and strategies to help attendees strengthen individual and organizational effectiveness. Group discussions will focus on real-life examples that can be adapted for your IT organization. We strongly encourage those serving in executive leadership or other management roles within an IT organization to attend, given their responsibility in leading organizations and enhancing the abilities of their staffs.
