Place: Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel at Singapore
Overview
Facing the challenge, leading the change
The business demands on IT are increasing globally. Business executives expect the CIO and the IT organization to play a significant role in controlling costs, improving business processes, and raising workforce performance over and beyond building and delivering cost effective, reliable infrastructure and application services.
To maximize their contribution to business success, CIOs must learn not only how to manage an effective IT organization, but also to develop their understanding of business expectations and how IT can contribute accordingly.
Despite a global economic slowdown, Asia's growth will result in an expected 40.6% of worldwide gross real domestic product in 2008. There are no doubt challenging times ahead globally, but Asia's rising as a major powerhouse will create new opportunities for businesses throughout the region.
