8:00am – 8:30am: Registration and Continental Breakfast

8:30am-9:20am: How IT can Participate in your Digital Business Transformation – and make an Impact!

Jim MacLennan, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer, IDEX Corporation

In most traditional organizations, IT is a back-office function – focused on Operations and cost control, spending little time with Customers and Products. But in a company transforming into a Digital Business, teams that work with Information and Technology have a much greater chance to participate in those connections – and will very probably be on the team that reacts to and delivers on the ideas that are generated. Should IT play a key role in a Digital Business transformation? This presentation will provide some context for the idea – with real-world examples and stories of what works and what does not.

MacLennan

9:20am – 10:10am: How to Secure the Budget You Truly Need – Translating Technology Costs to Business Value

Jim Mirochnik, Senior Partner, HALOCK Security Labs
MBA, PMP, PCI QSA, ISO 27001 Auditor

Have you found yourself in front of the Board or senior leadership team, requesting a larger budget or more resources – frustrated that no one understands the real risk at hand? Do you receive the budget and resources you need to cover your responsibilities, or do you have to fit into an existing budget that may have little to do with what is actually needed?

Too often, IT and the Business are speaking different languages. IT speaks the language of risks and costs, while Business speaks the language of investment and revenue. The lack of a common language leads to frustration on both sides. This session demonstrates, using real-life examples, how Duty of Care Risk Analysis (DoCRA) can translate technology initiatives to business value and help secure the budget you truly need!

2:00pm – 2:50pm: Humans Not Robots – Customer Success with Digital Transformation

Fred Tsai, VP, Global Customer Success, Liferay

Digital transformation cannot simply be a discussion about API standards, rather it needs to be about the impact and effect on real, live living and breathing human beings. Customers are people. IT colleagues are people. Organizations need to reach their customers as human beings. Learn how digital transformation does not reduce client, human-interactive experiences, but empower customers with results.

However, the CIO is crucial in connecting business processes, enterprise information and the digital channels that achieve the always-on needs of customers and employees. The strength of the CIO-CMO relationship is vital to a company’s success, but can be challenging to navigate and manage.

In this session, attendees will learn from IT executives as to strategies that are using to work closely with the CMO, manage expectations of their teams, and drive business success.
