Dr. Coleen Birch
on the topic of
IT Portfolio Management
Portfolio management is a mature concept in financial management
circles. Financial managers tailor a portfolio of investments based
on their customers goals and risk profile. Dr. Birch will present
her thoughts on how these established concepts of portfolio
management can be used to increase visibility and gain control of IT
services and projects. She will draw on IT service management
concepts from the IT Infrastructure Library and governance concepts
from the Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology (CobiT)
to discuss the benefits and responsibilities associated with
portfolio management.
