Why do organizations wait for a negative, newsworthy event, new mandate or impending audit before they decide to focus on governance?

With the increased pressures to create value through benefits realization, risk optimization and resource optimization, a governance solution is paramount to survival in today’s fast moving and highly compliance focused business environment.

A key success factor to any governance initiative is to ensure the proper knowledge, skills and abilities are available.

Two of the key areas include the CGEIT certification and the COBIT framework.

Join Mark Thomas in this engaging webinar where he will explore the vital link between the CGEIT certification and the COBIT framework, and how professionals of all levels can have greater visibility and impact on organizational success.

Learning objectives;

  • What is governance, and why enterprise IT should not be governing itself
  • How to avoid framework fatigue by using an overarching governance framework
  • How to secure the proper knowledge, skills and abilities in your organization to ensure a valuable governance of enterprise IT program
  • Understand “what’s in it for me?” with a CGEIT designation and how the COBIT framework supports the adoption of key CGEIT aspects
