Speaker/s
  • Mr. Iain Wilson, Network Manager, Charterhouse School - Speaking on behalf of Nouveau Solutions Ltd.

    Seminar Details

    This session will cover how to define an IT strategy in order to improve network performance in a relatively straight forward way, requiring planning and defining outcomes.
    Issues that will be addressed include:

    • Persuading various stakeholders to Invest 6 figure sums on IT, that they cannot easily see, is a lot harder
    • Switching of an old trusted but slow Network and Introducing a new Network / Domain during a summer holday where A level results for Fee paying Students is critical could be viewed as suicidal, (collect your P45 on the way out)
    • How we handled each of these aspects and the bleeding edge technology from HP and Microsoft that has moved Charterhouse from followers to trail blazers.
       

    When you leave this session you will:

    • Have understood the value of planning, defining outcomes for IT projects.
    • Knowledge on how to get Non IT stakeholders to fund IT projects.
    • Not be a prisoner to the idea that bleeding edge is a risk.
