The ITx 2016 Programme may change without notice
We often talk about the need for an executive sponsor or senior management commitment as necessary for a successful ITSM improvement initiative.
However, for an initiative to be truly successful sponsorship is much more than that. Research shows that the greatest obstacle to success is ineffective organizational change management sponsorship. Sponsorship must cascade down through the organization.
This presentation will show you how to develop an effective sponsorship model for your ITSM initiative, ensure your sponsors have the required competencies and that they are advocates for your initiative.
