OPENING KEYNOTE - "THE NEW VOICE OF THE CIO-INSIGHTS FROM THE GLOBAL CIO STUDY"
Presented by: Michael Martine, Director, Supply Chain Transformation, Enterprise On Demand Transformation/CIO Office team, IBM
Discussion: The CIO is no longer looked upon as the person who “Keeps IT Lights On” but is now recognized for the essential role they play in delivering business value through leveraging information technology and insight to help their organizations achieve their strategic business objectives. The alignment of CEOs and CIOs across the areas insight and intelligence, client intimacy, and people skills has never been closer. Technology has become ubiquitous and data is expanding exponentially. In turn, the role of the CIO is becoming more important as a driver of business growth.

While the CIOs and CEO are starting to line up their areas of highest importance, “one size does not fit all”. The study has found some clear differences in the approach to IT leadership based upon the organization’s business needs and goals. Our study identified four distinct “CIO Mandates” based on how each organization views the role of IT: Leverage, Expand, Transform, and Pioneer. Each mandate has a clear focus and requires different sets of core competencies.

This presentation will examine in depth the findings of IBM’s most recent study of Chief Information Officers - The Essential CIO. This is the largest study of CIOs ever undertaken. It is based on over 3,000 face-to-face interviews with CIOs from diverse organizations in 71 countries, across 18 industries, and differing size. Today’s CIOs are uniquely positioned to help their organizations address the complexity of the 21st century and are more essential than ever to deliver business insight and serve as catalysts for innovation.

"IT LEADERSHIP WORKSHOP"
Presented by: Jim Lamoin, Regional Leadership Forum Facilitator
Discussion: Leadership has many facets and as leaders we are called upon to use many skills acquired in many different ways during the course of life and our careers. The SIM leadership forums consider three of the most important factors to be how we think, how we learn and thereby, how we bring about change as leaders. Through a series of interactive exercises and participation we will demonstrate the importance of each of these and perhaps, rejuvenate how you, as a leader, can more effectively adapt all three to your personal leadership styles.

“INFORMATION GOVERNANCE: SMARTER STRATEGIES TO MAXIMIZE"
Presented by: Meenu Agarwal, Business Programs Manager, IBM Corporation
Discussion: The volume and variety of digital information is exploding as our planet becomes more instrumented, interconnected and intelligent. Current economic times require corporations and governments to analyze new information faster and make timely decisions for achieving business goals within budget. Look around you and think about all the new types of information your organization is collecting that it previously did not capture 10, 5, or even a single year ago. How do you manage and protect this information today? Is your organization able to harness this data to drive smarter business outcomes and ensure your company is prepared for the future? In this session we will discuss best practices to master the complete lifecycle of information, establish sustainable management of information quality and security, and enable it to make information more accessible and meaningful to the business. Learn how an effective governance strategy can enable it and business to collaborate more effectively by ensuring information is aligned to business goals. Understand how your organization can take a holistic approach to improve operational efficiency by reducing risk and wasted time and cost associated with finding, understanding, and managing information.
