Andy Roach Presents “Getting Invited to the Innovation Conversation” on May 22

On May 22, Andy Roach, Ketchum Partner, Chief Information Officer and B2B Technology Practice Lead, will present “Getting Invited to the Innovation Conversation” at Forrester’s IT Forum 2008 in Las Vegas.

 

Innovation is a hot topic at most companies, but IT is often left out of the discussion. From his dual perspective as CIO of a global top 10 public relations agency and communications strategist for Ketchum’s technology clients, Andy will discuss what CIOs must change to get invited to the “innovation conversation” and how to turn trends like consumer technologies in the workplace and utility computing into innovation drivers. Among the topics that Andy will discuss are how to build a culture of innovation within IT and how to juggle operational versus strategic demands to deliver on innovation.

 

Forrester’s IT Forum 2008 is designed for IT professionals who have a greater role in their company’s growth and competitive success than ever before, where technology no longer just supports the business, but has become essential to drive key processes, collaboration, and differentiation. Forrester’s IT Forum 2008 will show attendees how to deliver maximum business value from IT today, while working with the business to pursue the technologies, architecture, and IT practices that drive innovation and top-line growth.
