KCoe ISG is a business technology consultancy that works with CEOs, COOs & CFOs across manufacturing, banking and biofuels to align their technology with current and future growth ambitions.Throughout my 35 years in the IT services industry, I’ve brought solutions to clients to help them improve IT, built and run large international organizations, helped clients develop revenue growth strategies, build new operations, open new locations and build new business units all with the end goal of business grown by aligning IT with business. Challenges I addressed include:1) Helping IT organizations understand what changes they need to make to better align to organization goals. Anyone can re-draw and reorganize an IT department but can they do it effectively? I’ve helped design multiple organizations and put in place the systems and operations to run those operations that can respond better to market conditions and organization goals. 2) Developing long range strategic plans. It is easy to read strategic plans (assuming they exist!) but gaining an understanding of how they are to be achieved, who are the real stakeholders and gaining census on what IT projects must be undertaken is the tricky part. I’ve work in and with large complex multinational organizations to identify those strategic initiatives, put plans in place and executed on those plans.3) Assessing and re-aligning strategic projects. All IT organizations have multiple on-going projects, it just seems at least one or multiple strategic projects aren’t delivering efficiently. Often times this due to mis-aligned expectations, conflicting priorities or one or two ineffective key personal, I’ve had to “jump in and fix” multiple complex projects. This is why I am excited to see K-Coe ISG help Business and IT gain greater alignment for growth. As the senior client solution executive I bring the solutions we have to our clients to help them succeed their strategic goals.
