IT (Information Technology) Portfolio Management Step-by-Step: Unlocking the Business Value of Technology

by Bryan Maizlish

Bryan Maizlish and Robert Handler apply 'value realization' to IT portfolio management. They capture the essence of universally proven investment practices and apply them to the most difficult of challenges--returning high strategic and dollar payoffs from an enterprise's IT department.

The book describes in great detail the critical aspects, know-how, practical examples, key insights, and best practices to improve operational efficiency, corporate agility, and business competitiveness. It eloquently illustrates the methods of building and integrating a portfolio of IT investments to ensure the realization of maximum value and benefit, and to fully leverage the value of all IT assets.

It is an important book for executive, business, and IT managers.
