HOT TOPIC PANEL - Get 'm, Grow 'em & Keep 'em; Competing for the Best People
Who delivers service? Who implements ITIL processes? Who uses tools? People! You can have the best processes, systems, software, products, services and the rest, but if you don't have good people designing, delivering and using them, then nothing works. How do you define a good person? Do you even know what to look for? Is it skill, capability or attitude? How can you make sure your current team is on board with your vision and is capable of helping you achieve it? And, in this competitive world, what's to stop your talented people leaving you at the drop of a hat? These are all hard questions but, get it right, and your sure to have a great result. The panel will discuss these weighty questions and provide some real pearls of wisdom to help you on your service management journey.

HOT TOPIC PANEL - Governing the Cloud
Who would have thought 15 years ago that you could buy computer processing, applications or storage like you buy electricity or gas? Today with cloud computing this is a reality! Cloud computing services offers organisations the ability to scale up and down, flexibility in removing the requirement for extensive infrastructure and maintenance ownership and cost advantages moving from a capital intensive to operational basis so there is no downside? Or is there? Cloud Computing exposes the organisations to unfamiliar risks in the IT landscape and some old favourites as well including privacy, data ownership questions and accountability to name only a few. The panel will discuss approaches to Service Management, Value Realisation, Information Security and Sourcing Decisions and take your burning questions!
