CEOs and senior business executives have continually challenged IT organizations to demonstrate the value of their spend. Discussions around work priorities, value, and alignment with the business have always been 'evergreen' topics on the CIO agenda. As a practical matter, the hope has been that decisions resulting from these discussions are reflected in the spend levels and components of the IT budget.

In this web conference, Marc Posner will describe some useful discussion/analytical frameworks for making more informed (and less risky) decisions around IT spend reduction, as well as some real world examples where such techniques have been applied. A series of action steps will also be discussed to illustrate how organizations can quickly put this thinking into action and build confidence/trust with senior business leaders in these troubled times.
