CIO Masterclass

THE CIO AS STRATEGIST MASTERCLASS
19th JULY 2010, 9AM – 5PM (PRE-SUMMIT MASTERCLASS)

Recent findings from the business literature have revealed a major challenge to today’s successful organizations: - the ability to anticipate, and prepare for, continuous and disruptive market change.   
 
While many organisations have been created, and indeed prospered, around a key successful business idea, often this success has ultimately encumbered the organisation, and made it difficult to adjust to changing market realities.    

As a result, the established successful organisation may face significant challenges to continued market dominance. Recent evidence suggests that the more successful the organisation is, the more susceptible it is to innovator’s dilemma; paralysis due to confusion over how best to react to new rules of competition in the market.  Witness the current uncertainty that abounds in many organisations over the appropriate way to respond to the shifting sentiments towards the opportunities of e-business, and next generation wireless internet technologies.    

Key themes that will be explored by Dr. Peter Wilton during this fast moving and highly interactive Masterclass include:

OVERVIEW: MANAGING THE VALUE-DELIVERY SEQUENCE
•    Why Successful Organisations Fail
•    Managing The Value Delivery Sequence: Overview
•    Understanding the Between Link Customer Value and Shareholder Value

•    The Emerging Strategic Imperative: Building Customer Franchise & Leading Value Migration
•    Rethinking Business Success: Refocusing the Success Metrics of the Organisation?
•    The Link Between Market Performance and the Organizational Rewards

ANTICIPATE THE FUTURE MARKET AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
•    The Why Good Companies Go Bad: The Threat of Active Inertia
•    Uncovering the Limitations of Today’s  Business Strategies & Operating Models
•    Uncovering the Limitations of Today’s Core Competencies
•    Managing the Risk of Strategic Irrelevance: The Process of Strategic Discovery
•    Managing Value Migration: Shaping Tomorrow’s Market and Competitive Environment
•    Understanding Strategic Posture: to Shape, Hold, or React?
•    Challenging the Strategic Assumptions: Developing New Rules of Market and Competitive Behaviour
•    Managing the Industry Innovator Roles: Market Transitions during Innovation Evolution

THE EXTERNAL VISION FOR VALUE-CREATION
•    The Pivotal Role of Customer-Value Creation and Delivery in Organisational Success
•    Winning in the Future Market & Operating Environment: - Developing the Vision for Superior Customer-Value Creation
•    Mastering The Key Value-Creation Decisions
•    Articulating the Compelling Customer Value Proposition: The Strategic Information Architecture
•    Strategic Value Positioning: Understanding How Customer Value Drives Market Choice and Competitive Dynamics
•    Choosing the Differentiation Platform: The Key Differentiation Opportunities and their Organizational Requirements
•    Managing Customer-Value Intelligently: Identifying and Managing the “Order-Winning” Customer Loyalty Drivers

THE INTERNAL VISION FOR VALUE-DELIVERY
•    Transitioning from Good to Great
•    Preparing to Deliver the Customer-Value Promise
•    Understanding the Elements of Successful Strategy Implementation
•    Realigning the Business-Unit Management Value Disciplines
•    Pinpointing New Skills, Assets, and Competencies Required to Prosper in the Anticipated Future Market & Operating Environment
•    Measuring and Closing the Skills Gap

INTERNATIONAL KEYNOTE: The CIO as Strategist: Architecting for Leadership, Growth and Innovation

Perhaps the most important strategic issue facing the firm in this environment of uncertainty is the choice of strategic posture, the profile of the organisation’s actions towards its environment. Some organisations are redefining their business and focusing on radical improvement and optimisation while others are encumbered by past investments, and the management assumptions underlying them. Dr. Peter Wilton will expose leading edge thinking on how to respond to the shifts in the rules of market competition.
• The causes of demise, and key market risks, facing successful organisations
• The importance of shaping market and competitive behaviour, rather than reacting to it
• Tools and approaches for systematically anticipating changing market realities, and uncovering powerful new marketing and business strategies to prosper in the face of such change
• Approaches for pinpointing the specific new skills, assets, and organizational capabilities which will enable the organisation to master an unfamiliar future

Dr. Peter Wilton, Senior Lecturer, HAAS SCHOOL OF BUSINESS

INTERNATIONAL KEYNOTE CASE STUDY: How Next-Generation Communication Solutions can Assist Enterprises to Transform and Deliver Innovation.

Gabrielle will provide us with key insights about leveraging technology enabled change into a resistant enterprise through flexible partnering, better communication of business outcomes, capabilities and costs. While consumer needs drive the direction of change, it’s more often the scale of enterprise adoption that determines whether such needs are realistically sustainable across the industry. It’s this factor that Gabrielle has explored in her work with the Australian government and other related large scale industries. Using a range of current opportunities to illustrate the ‘open window’ for change, Gabrielle’s discussion will show how and where the next generation communication solutions can shape enterprise improvements to service delivery, transform back office processes and increase productivity. Building on this, Gabrielle will discuss industry platform strategies and how these can be used to enhance transformation and innovative thinking about enterprise operations and customer services of the future.

CIO Leaders Panel: Should CIOs Help Drive The Business, Or Align With The Business? (Panel)

Business cycles are moving faster than ever before – in such a climate, can CIOs afford to take a reactive position by saying their job is to have IT "align with" and "support" the business? Or do such structures end of lengthening business cycles because they keep IT teams in a separate, detached silo that by definition is not a part of the business? Many market-leading companies have knocked down such silos and are tightly integrating IT and business, infusing IT's capabilities into product development, marketing campaigns, sales engagements, and more. This panel will explore this deeply strategic issue for CIOs.

Moderated by:
Damian Swaffield, former CIO, TVNZ
Panellists:
Julia Raue, CIO, AIR NEW ZEALAND
Alma Hong, CIO, NEW ZEALAND FIRE SERVICE
Tanya Harris, CIO - Knowledge Services Group, THE RESERVE BANK OF NEW ZEALAND
Kevin Drinkwater, CIO, MAINFREIGHT

INTERNATIONAL KEYNOTE: Preparing The CIO For The Next Wave Of ICT Innovation (Keynote)

The post global recession will bring about many changes to the ICT environment driven by innovation that started several years earlier. The competitive landscape is almost certain to look very different from where it is today. Smarter hand held devices, the expanding content explosion, new business delivery models, tied with increasing compliance; security challenges and environmental clampdown will have a very real impact on the CIO's decisions. Vernon Turner will lay out several scenarios of what the future ICT landscape will look like as more widespread digital intelligence within the business landscape could change local, national and even the international economies.

A Shared Services Governance Framework: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

Two-way responsibility and accountability is key to establishing a successful Shared Services operation. However, unless the operating units trust that the Shared Services operation will perform as expected and with the quality, cost, and timeliness laid out in the Service Level Agreement, they will never assume their share of the responsibility and accountability required.
• Precursors to effective shared services – governance and strategy
• Satisfying governance team expectations that the shared services will be established and survive
• The challenges facing the conflicting roles of governance in a shared service environment
• Common overlooked items within the defined governance structure
• Governance Models for Multi-Party Arrangements

Phil Brimacombe, CIO, HEALTHALLIANCE

Open Source in the Corporate Environment: Risks and Opportunities for the CIO

According to recent international research nearly 30% of IT services and solutions could be based on Open Source by 2012. For CIOs, this promises to bring both risks and opportunities. Everyone is asking the same questions: where and when is Open Source best used? What governance policies should we put in place? From collaborative development to "community sourcing", is Open Source bringing about a new approach to IS management? This CIO will discuss how they have successfully brought some open source software into their organisation. They will give their feedback on their experience and discuss the main issues as they see it with the current state of the open source industry.
• How do organisations function in a mixed environment?
• Integration of Open Source into the technology mix
• Risk considerations of integrating an open source platform into the corporate environment

Liz Gosling, Director - ICT Services, AUCKLAND UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY

The Future of Enterprise Technology

You have heard the vision of how Enterprise 2.0 is transforming the way we work, the way we access and share information and the way we communicate and collaborate in the social enterprise. But how is this grand vision playing out in the real world, especially as businesses are faced with unique new obstacles? In this session this speaker will give an honest assessment of Enterprise 2.0 in the real world and how innovative approaches to technology will transform how organisations work.
• What's working, what's not and what's next?
• Creating business value from emerging technologies
• How people are using MS and related third party vendor products to support Enterprise 2.0 strategies?
• The realities of implementation - lessons learned, challenges and successes

Putting an Evolution in Technology to the Test: A Cost Benefit Analysis on a recent business project with a major ICT component

More so than in any recent times, CIO’s are being asked to cut IT budgets, reduce head count and deliver the same or enhanced IT services for less money. The CFO and CEO are also becoming increasingly engaged in decisions on how to allocate IT budgets in order to deliver the highest possible return on investment. CIOs need to demonstrate that all the efforts of IT generate net benefits. David will discuss:
• Challenges within their organisation and the requirement to align spending with the constantly changing requirements of the business
• The role of IT within their organisation and key requirements of any solutions implemented
• Managing the tension of considering radical innovation recommended by the CIO, while accepting the risk of failure and resultant costs
• Taking advantage of new business models for the delivery of IT requirements and a detailed cost benefit analysis

INTERNATIONAL KEYNOTE: Crisis Driven Innovation

Every recession of the past few decades has spawned massive restructuring of technology and an abundance of opportunity when the inexorable rebound occurs. The ever-accelerating scientific and technological tsunami that is enabled by computing power, ubiquitous high-speed global connectivity and boundless storage capacity will unleash a set of cultural shifts that will forever change our perception of the world. André Mendes sees a veritable maelstrom of change sweeping us into the next generation of innovation, with life-changing consequences for people worldwide. In this inspirational keynote, Mendes envisions a near future where culture, business and technology are tightly intertwined and virtually indistinguishable; where societies are forever altered and where technology serves as a guidepost for a “higher level of reality” in the fast-evolving world of the 21st century.

Customer Intimacy; Really?

Customer Intimacy is one of the three Value Disciplines, regarded by Treacy and Wiersema as the key to outstanding company success. Their argument is that an organisation should be world class in one Value Discipline (the other two being Operational Excellence and Product Leadership) and at the industry average level in the other two. IT is a pre-requisite for Customer Intimacy, but what does that mean in practical terms, how is it achieved, and what is the ROI? What is the role of IT in this discipline?
