IT Leaders: The First 90 Days

Any senior manager joining a new organization needs to make a strong impact and fast. It is generally recognized that the first 90 days are the most critical. But while you are busy getting to know the new team and networking with senior peers, it can be difficult to find clear time to work on all the other issues.

The first 90 days programme provides you with a highly experienced senior IT professional, typically a former IT director, to help support you during this key time. We bring proven ‘best in practice’ methods on day one to help you get ahead. These methods are then enhanced to meet the specific needs of your business. We work closely with you and your direct team to strengthen team spirit, providing coaching and management development to deliver specific results.

The First 90 days principles are also covered within the public course IT Leadership, run quarterly at Greenlands, near Henley on Thames, Oxfordshire.

 

We support you to achieve the following objectives:

  • A situation analysis based on hard facts and data, looking at operational performance and the project portfolio, as well as subjective views from key stakeholders
  • Assessment of your cost base and identification of opportunities to optimize value from suppliers using a structured review
  • Assistance in developing a strategy that is owned by you, your team and the senior management
  • Implementation of a robust governance framework
  • Support in developing a highly performing team based on strong values and teamwork
