There are so many places you could start making ITG improvements, but where is the "best" place to start? Pepperweed recommends our Business Goal to IT Objective Mapping exercise as the most logical first step. This includes:

• Understanding what goals are important to business.
• Understanding what objectives IT is currently operating under.
• Aligning those objectives to business goals.
• Understanding the constraints tied to each.
• Finishing the exercise by defining measures of success for business goals and measures of performance for IT objectives.

The result of this exercise will be an IT Governance roadmap designed to meet the specific needs of your organization.

Every organization seems to have a different view of what IT Governance is. To Pepperweed, it means assisting you in the following areas:

• Organizational Development
  
• Organizational Change
  
• Business Goal to IT Objective Mapping
  
• Compliance
