12 behaviors for creating a healthy risk culture
"One of the key maxims of risk management is that assumptions made are risks that you have accepted," says Dr. Robert Charette, a Fellow of the Cutter Consortium and Director of its Enterprise Risk Management and Governance practice. In this interview, Dr. Charette outlines 12 key organizational behaviors that can help IT leaders create and manage a risk culture in their organizations. State of IT communication - Rich interaction on the decline
Long gone are the days of rich interactions with IT team members - the one-on-one discussions, gatherings of smaller teams, or the simple impromptu hallway conversations. Instead, more and more IT pros find their time spent on less meaningful exchanges in larger, ineffective meetings, says Tom DeMarco, author of various project management and workplace efficiency books. Here, Tom talks about the state of interaction in the workplace, why we have too many bad meetings, and how we can change the way we work. Transforming the CIO
Transforming the CIO According to a recent report from the IT Leadership Academy, 16 percent of CIOs are world-class, 23 percent are good, and the rest are just average - and that's being generous. What group do you belong to? Thornton May, a self-described "CIO groupie" and long-time industry observer, speaks candidly about the challenges facing today's CIOs, and why what some of them are doing just isn't working. If you haven't heard enough, go to ITworld.com Voices for additional interviews.
