Managing It As an Investment: Partnering for Success

70% of IT organizations are still viewed as cost centers, not value centers. That must change. Managing IT as an Investment shows IT leaders exactly how to change it. Respected CIO Ken Moskowitz and top IT consultant Harris Kern offer a complete action plan for managing technology as a strategic asset, partnering with the business, building a culture based on shared values, nurturing individuals to new levels of productivity and satisfaction, creating exceptional value - and being recognized for it throughout an organization.

Previously, as CIO of Standard & Poor's Credit Market Services, he was responsible for the IT resources to support S&P worldwide. He was formerly CTO for the Global Merchant Banking Unit of Banker's Trust, director of wholesale banking technology for EAB, and senior director of management consulting at Coopers & Lybrand.
