Just returned from an event in Berlin, Germany where I delivered a presentation on IT Teaming and IT Governance to a group of high level IT executives from Europe, Middle-East and Africa.
Presentation focused on how to build effective IT teams, implement key IT processes and ensure and enforce IT governance. Material was well received by the group.
