I would fire all
of IT if I could
David Neitz, Lincoln Trust Company
Thursday, September 9, 2010
 If
you ask the business would they say IT is communicating status
but not value, fulfilling requests but not solving problems, and
partially deploying technologies but not delivering expected
results?
IT at Lincoln Trust was exhibiting many of these behaviors and
one of the EVP’s in the business stated “I would fire all of IT
if I could”. Learn how a Marketing of IT approach was used to
transform IT into an award winning solution provider and trusted
partner. Awards gained using the approach include:

Cloud Computing - Are You Ready?
September 24, 2010, 1:00
PM to 5:30 PM
Cloud computing is the new
Information Technology delivery model that reduces total
costs of ownership and is the place where companies are
investing their technology dollars. International Data
Corporation (IDC) said $17 billion has already been
invested in cloud technology services and another $44
billion will be spent by the end of 2013. The Wall
Street Journal reported that business spending is
soaring on internet plumbing such as servers that
support cloud computing platforms. Dell’s vice president
says that the company is seeing triple-digit increases
in its cloud computing business year to year. One of the
key drivers of this technology is that companies are
using the web to reach more customers and utilizing
features such as video streaming which require more
computing power and faster network connections. Attend
this seminar and hear the industry speakers discuss how
they are delivering and using cloud computing
technology.

Monthly Briefings and Lunch -
From September to May, we offer monthly
lunchtime events that give you access to
experts
who give you the tools you need to get promoted and succeed
in your role as an IT manager.
-
Professional Development -
Topics focus specifically on IT management issues and you get
the chance to discuss ideas with IT managers from other companies.
-
IT Community -
As an IT manager, it pays to be active
in
your community.
Networking with
RMIMA
members
at our outside events
gives you the relationships you need to
benefit from the experience of your colleagues in other
industries.
-
Education -
RMIMA
is forward-thinking. We
are aware that schools
are not
graduating students in IT as fast as IT professionals are retiring.
WeÂ’re one of the few organizations thatÂ’s doing something about it.
Through our Student Ambassador Program, weÂ’re reaching out to top
students and weÂ’re partnering with the best
colleges and universities in the area.
If you want to drive
change in your organization, motivate your people, and get
projects done
on-time and on-budget, RMIMA is a great resource for you.
RMIMA meets for lunch on the second
Thursday on the month from September through May. Each meeting
gives you time to network and to participate in a topical presentation.
Registration and networking is at 10:30, the speaker starts at 11:00
sharp, and lunch begins at noon. This means you can be back to the
office right after lunch.
