Recenzii
A fascinating take on what too many businesspeople - wrongly - think is a dry subject. Profoundly valuable for any business venture and also engaging and entertaining. I thoroughly recommend it. -- Simon Walker Institute of Directors This well written and engaging book...provides thoughtful, practical solutions for managing IT in order to maximize its positive impact and minimize risks. -- Craig Nevill-Manning Google This book is an excellent companion to the ISO/IEC 38500 standard. It provides guidance on how to implement and maintain effective governance of IT within your organisation. This is an essential reference for anyone in governance or executive management in any organisation. -- Rob England This book fills a void that has existed for at least 20 years. Boards now have the information and the tools this book provides to tackle the contemporary issues of IT governance. Alison Holt draws on practical experiences in IT, including as chair of the International Standards Organisation committee that wrote the standard on the governance of IT, at the coal face of corporate IT development contracts and as a company director herself, to explain, educate and inform directors on governance issues most companies face with IT. This includes managing the CEO and the CIO, whose technical knowledge usually exceeds that of most directors; yet the board is tasked with the responsibility to direct, evaluate and monitor IT management. With a deft touch, and more humour than expected, the author guides directors through complex issues by clear explanation and useful analogy. This is an easy but necessary read for anyone engaged in IT governance. -- Peter Dengate Thrush InternetNZ and ICANN
