Make IT More Successful In Your Nonprofit
Presented by:
Harwell Thrasher, MakingITclear, Inc. and author of the book 'Boiling the IT Frog: How to Make Your Business Information Technology Wildly Successful Without Having to Learn Anything Technical'
This seminar is for anyone who is frustrated with Information Technology and for every non-technical person who is at the mercy of a seemingly uncooperative IT organization. It's for non-technical people who want to better understand IT, and for IT people who want to understand why their jobs may go unappreciated.
This is not a technical workshop. It's the people who manage and use the technology who are important -- not the technology itself -- and this is a seminar about those people, their limitations in coping with technology, and how they can better deal with those limitations.
Here are some of the secrets revealed and discussed during this seminar:
-
Magic in IT isn’t a Good Thing
-
Without Trust, IT is Useless
-
The Four Biggest IT Infrastructure Secrets
-
The Six Biggest Reasons for IT Project Failure
-
Software Maintenance isn’t Like Other Maintenance
-
The Five Key Components of an IT Strategy
Learn these secrets, and leave the seminar with a list of specific actions you can take back to your nonprofit to make your IT more successful.
