For many CIOs, the value they deliver is elusive. It's not that they do not create positive business outcomes, it's that they have a hard time demonstrating value for the money spent. As a result, many IT leaders find themselves trapped in a vicious cycle of defending their budgets, cutting resources when times are tight, and struggling to keep pace with an insatiable business appetite for innovation. Meanwhile, business leaders increasingly rely on the cloud and other third parties for their technology needs, finding clear tradeoffs between cost, features, risk, and speed of delivery at their fingertips. CIOs must not only compete with these alternatives, they must embrace the new reality of a multi-sourced, service-oriented world.Many IT leaders are taking a more proactive approach to optimizing value. By using shared facts about cost, consumption, quality, risk and performance, hundreds of CIOs have empowered value conversations centered on cost-for-performance, business-aligned portfolios, investments in innovation and enterprise agility. The tradeoffs they've illuminated changed the tone of their meetings and instilled a business mindset in IT decisions.By reading this book, you'll discover and learn the following:-A practical, applied framework -- called Technology Business Management -- for creating and using shared facts to make better decisions about people, technologies, services and investments-A standard taxonomy of resources, technologies and services for CIOs to translate between IT, financial, and business perspectives-Creating transparency to empower decision makers, demonstrate cost-efficiency, shape demand and plan in step with the business-What your technology business model says about the value you deliver and the disciplines you employ-How to shift from project portfolio management to service portfolio management to both improve alignment and adopt more agile approaches to innovation and development-How to optimize run-the-business spending by optimizing infrastructure, outsources, labor and services and rationalizing your portfolios for better alignment-How to improve your ability to change the business by better governing innovation investments and improving enterprise agility-How to create and execute a roadmap for improving data and decision making capabilities over time while reaping rewards at every stage of maturity

This book has been written to assist those people who are starting, and also those that are already involved, with the process of managing the cost of Information Technology, and looking for the appropriate way to manage that cost to deliver business value. A structured method to deliver this, Technology Business Management (TBM), will be introduced in terms of the ideas, approaches, challenges and responses that are involved. TBM has developed and formalised as a consolidated set of disciplines since the late 'noughties,' previously having been activities carried out piecemeal and usually prioritised on an ad-hoc basis or to firefight specific organisational issues as they arose. In larger organisations, the activities which are now grouped together under a TBM banner were separate functions, with little or no recognition of the value to be gained by improving their cross-functional interaction. Without any formal structure to guide this, alongside the necessary level of professional expertise, and the training and focus needed to maintain core capabilities, the isolation of finance and technology functions was only broken down in a few companies. This book takes the practical disciplines of TBM and builds on the central concepts related to value which were covered in the 2016 book by Todd Tucker, "Technology Business Management: The Four Value Conversations CIOs Must Have With Their Businesses ". The development of TBM is as much founded on in its practical delivery as in the recognition of its value, and this book brings together structured guidance on that, based on real-life implementations and conversations about the concepts. The increasing capabilities of tools which help integrate information from multiple business functions paved the way for many innovative business improvements, and continue to do so. The recognition of the value to be gained in bringing this ability to the combination of management disciplines from technology, finance and business is where Technology Business Management derived its core propositions. Gradual development of the formality around this, with incremental value being able to be delivered over a sustained period, is why TBM has grown to its current state. A particular backbone of this is the TBM Taxonomy, which is included in this book as an Appendix. The other major factor in the development of Technology Business Management as a discipline has been the recognition of the value of a community of common interest, rather than the previous islands of competence. TBM is what has developed in the last decade from the starting point of those far-sighted individuals, companies and suppliers who saw a common interest in fixing problems that many organisations looked at as "too hard". Continuing to build those communities of interest around TBM is a route to innovating and continuing to gain value, both within an organisation and within and across industries. There is still a gap between what it is possible to communicate and teach, as against what can be built through more direct relationships between those who are thoughtful, skilled, inquisitive or knowledgeable in a topic. A common understanding of the challenges and failures that are likely to affect those working in this space is, however, useful. That is what this book targets.

Remember the '70s? Way back then, IT was a mainframe that sat in some room and only a few people had a key. Flash forward a decade, and IT was a limited set of systems irrelevant to the vast majority of employees and customers. But today, all of the sudden, technology belongs to everyone. Because of the suddenness of this revolution in technology adoption, most IT organizations have not had enough time to evolve into a "comfortable integration" with the rest of the company. This lack of comfortable integration has led to confusion over who is truly accountable for the return on technology investments, how much influence IT leaders should have over a company's business strategy, and whether CEOs need to hire Chief Digital Officers onto their senior leadership teams. Through interviews with dozens of CIOs, Heller has created a snapshot of what CIOs are doing to lead IT in a climate where technology belongs to everyone. She addresses how CIOs are changing their operating models, their approaches to talent development, and their assessment of the new IT provider marketplace. Most importantly, Heller defines the top ten skills and behaviors that CIOs will need to develop if they are going to be successful in an ever changing landscape. As a master storyteller, Heller incorporates philosophy, humor, and pragmatic advice into a book that both informs and entertains.

PRAISE FOR ACHIEVING BUSINESS VALUE FROM TECHNOLOGY "Clearly, IT investments have never before played such a critical part in business growth. The book addresses the weakness existing in most management systems involving the lack of a systematic process to realize the economic benefits of the IT investment and provides a clear A-Z methodology for business to bridge this gap. This book is clearly written for all levels and backgrounds in business management and is a must-do for those whose business involves IT, is considering IT, or would like to significantly tailor IT investments for their economic advantage." —Professor Richard P. Wool, University of Delaware, President and CEO, Cara Plastics Inc. "Tony Murphy addresses the difficult question of the value of IT investments head on. He translates an elegant theory into effective practice. The case studies in the book effectively reinforce his key messages." —Dr. Dermot Moynihan, Senior Vice President, World Wide Chemical Development, GlaxoSmithKline "This book is the answer to most CIOs' need for a well-structured, pragmatic, and easily implemented set of tools and practices designed to answer the universal problem of managing and measuring IT's contribution to the business. Tony Murphy's unique blend of practical experience, industry best practice, and excellent communication skills provides the reader with a valuable-and highly readable-guide on how best to achieve that elusive objective of reliably realizing the business benefits of IT investments." —Michael Rice, oup Director of IT, Kerry Group plc "At Oxfam we are one year into a three-year IT strategy based on the principles Tony Murphy lays out in this book, and there is a real, positive difference in how IT is perceived, and in its real strategic position within the organization. If you have ever wondered just how you can gain strategic alignment for your IT function, and then how to make the practical link to IT investment for the organization, Tony has provided a framework that joins them both." —Simon Jennings, Head of Information Systems, Oxfam GB

Like an old-fashioned three-legged race, the business and technology sides of any company are running today with the left leg of one tied to the right leg of the other. Some companies understand that and run well; some don't. The top executives interviewed in this book (see overflow page for a partial list) know where competitive leaders are headed. Winning the Three Legged Race is the first major output of the new Business Technology Management (BTM) Institute, reflecting insights from world-class experts in industry and academia. It gives enterprise, line-of-business, and IT leaders a powerful framework for optimizing areas critical to producing sustainable value from technology: 1. Strategy, planning, and management. 2. Technology investment. 3. Strategic enterprise architecture. 4. Governance and organization. For each area, the authors identify implications for ordered processes, organizational structures, information requirements, and technology. Winning the Three Legged Race introduces the BTM Maturity Model: a breakthrough benchmark for setting priorities and mapping effective change paths. The authors support their framework with up-to-the-minute data, new case studies, executive interviews, and Top 10 Action Lists that empower decision-makers to act--and get results.

Through interviews with a wide array of successful CIOs, The CIO Paradox helps readers level the playing field for IT success and get one step closer to bringing maximum value to their companies.

Praise for the The Executive's Guide to Information Technology "This book is important reading. It offers practical, real-world insight and pragmatic no-nonsense approaches for people who have a stake in corporate IT. " --Lynda Applegate, Henry R. Byers Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School "Information systems and processes are very important parts of our due diligence assessment of a company--yet the jargon is often more difficult to understand than many foreign languages. Baschab and Piot effectively translate IT into words and concepts that businesspeople can easily understand and act upon. This book is a helpful reference guide for corporate executives and private equity groups of all types." --Neal Aronson, Managing Partner, Roark Capital Group "Business success increasingly depends on effective use of IT. Effective use of IT depends on the kind of in-depth, practical insight in this book. Baschab and Piot provide a pragmatic approach to information systems investment that should be required reading for senior executives and CIOs alike." --Erik Brynjolfsson, Schussel Professor of Management, Director of the Center for Digital Business, MIT "This book should provide valuable guidance for management and technology consultants. The Executive's Guide to Information Technology provides field-proven insight on all important aspects of IT planning and execution, from governance to applications to operations and infrastructure." --Gary J. Fernandes, former vice chairman, EDS, member of the Board of Directors, Computer Associates "Baschab and Piot do a great job of laying out the fundamental issues and challenges that every IT organization faces. More often than not, the issues are not technical in nature, but are a reflection of how the IT and business teams work together to define, execute, and implement new business tools. The threshold issue is leadership. Often it is difficult for business leaders to feel that they have the skills and perspective to provide that leadership on technical projects. The Executive's Guide to Information Technology provides non-technical business leaders a solid framework for engaging with their IT peers." --Tom Nealon, Chief Information Officer, J.C. Penney
