Bill will take the stage in Dallas, TX on Tuesday, September 22, 2009 at 10:00A to present Enterprise Governance in a Virtual World.

The financial and operational benefits of virtualization are real, but the accompanying management challenges are equally real. This session - Enterprise Governance in a Virtual World -- will identify six (6) of the most significant IT management challenges introduced or complicated by virtualization.

Attendees will leave this session with:
• An appreciation for the business challenges exacerbated by virtualization
• An understanding of the detrimental effect on your business if addressing these challenges is not a critical-path component of your virtualization rollout
• A prescriptive approach of people, process, and technology to address and mitigate these management challenges

Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT), Bill brings a successful and practical approach to running IT as a business. For over twenty years, Bill has assisted more than forty medium and large IT organizations in designing and implementing their governance, service, and asset management performance improvement strategies. He is also the creator of ISM's copyrighted Framework for IT SuccessSM (a.k.a. Fritz ), which combines ISM's service, portfolio, and financial management experience with best practices from ITIL , COBIT , CMMI , and the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK ) into an integrated set of processes to help IT run like "a business within the business".

Do not miss this session. The governance and business management issues introduced by virtualization and the going-forward operational recommendations presented in this session are not commonly discussed in best practices or seminars today. Come ready to get a fresh perspective on how to manage one of the hottest technologies in IT today.
