Digital Governance: Leading and Thriving in a World of Fast-Changing Technologies

Autor Jeremy Green, Stephen Daniels
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 oct 2019
Digital Governance provides managers with a simple and jargon-free introduction to the impact that digital technology can have on the governance of their organisations. Digital technology is at the heart of any enterprise today, changing business processes and the way we work. But this technology is often used inefficiently, riskily or inappropriately. Worse perhaps, many organisational leaders fail to grasp the opportunities it offers and thus fail to "transform" their organisations through the use of technology.
This book provides an explanation of the basic issues around the opportunities and risks associated with digital technology. It describes the role that digital technology can play across organisations (and not just behind the locked doors of the IT department), giving boards and top management the insight to develop strategies for investing in and exploiting digital technology as well as arming them with the knowledge required to ask the right questions of specialists and to detect when the answers given are evasive or irrelevant.
International in its scope, this essential book covers the fundamental principles of digital governance such as leadership, capability, accountability for value creation and transparency of reporting, integrity and ethical behaviour.

Recenzii

"Boards have long needed a straight-forward guide on how to execute their vital Digital Governance responsibilities. This is that guide." - Mario Kempton, Vice President and CISO, UK & Australia, CGI Inc.
"This refreshing read is a useful tour through a key topic for today. ..... It is a long way from the dry formal texts on governance and it does an outstanding job of avoiding the unhelpful hyperbole and jargon. ...... This book provides a common-sense starting point for non-expert directors who need to address real-world technology. ......Indeed, it is a handy and readable introduction for anyone involved in the governance of enterprises." - Roger Lines PMIIA CIA CRMA CISA CRISC, Canberra, Australia
"This book is a seminal guide to this subject, from experts in the field, and a masterpiece of simplicity and clarity, that avoids the jargon which cloud the messages delivered by so many CIOs, CTOs and CISOs to their Boards." - Peadar Duffy, Member of the Irish National Standards Organisation's Governance and Risk Management Committees & Founder Director of SoluxR - Enhancing Strategy Execution.
"Over the last few years, it has become obvious that there is a gap in the knowledge and wisdom of Boards in respect of digital technology. This new book on digital governance bridges that gap, delivering a highly informative, easy read for top management to use in its vital role of digital governance. In addition, the principles and good practice it defines can be used as a general guide to other governance issues also by other levels of the organisation in strategy, implementation and support of digital technology. I strongly recommend this book both to governing bodies and to technology leaders alike. Congratulations to both Jeremy and Steve on providing this much needed work of wisdom." - Michael J Faber, Founding Chair of the BSI Committee responsible for developing the first British standard in Board-level Governance
