Weinzimer provides industry case studies of companies that have implemented multiple components of The Strategic IT Governance 2.0 model. These companies successfully leveraged collaboration between technology and the business to deliver technology projects that provide the best customer value, improve cost efficiencies, and create a governance culture across business areas. In his book, you will learn valuable lessons to implement an innovative governance model for your company.― Ashley Pettit, CIO, and Senior Vice President, Enterprise Technology, State Farm

In Strategic IT Governance 2.0, Phil provides a number of exciting case studies of how CIOs are leveraging technology to innovate and create value. They are following Phil's model, building strategic and tactical relationships within the business to drive technology growth strategies, collaborating with partners to improve customer service and increase value with process optimization and best practice metrics. Each of these companies offers a slightly different take on the multiple components of the Strategic IT Governance 2.0 model; however, these organizations' collective and individual success indicates the strength of the components.― Dawn Kirchner-King, Vice President and Chief Information Officer, Armstrong World Industries

Today's business environment is more complicated, creating additional challenges for the successful execution of strategic enterprise projects. Unless an organization revisits its governance model, strategic projects are at risk of negatively impacting business success. So, how do companies succeed in overcoming these obstacles to improve project success? Strategic IT Governance 2.0: How CIOs Succeed at Digital Innovation explains how IT executives can take the lead and successfully drive digital transformation initiatives and associated projects. The book presents the Strategic IT Governance 2.0 model that focuses on project alignment, process reinvention, and leadership excellence. It is filled with case studies of the model’s implementation, giving practical insight into how organizations have successfully executed digital transformation.
