The board of directors of my company is well aware its role is to oversee the company’s organisa-tional strategies, structures, systems, staff and standards. However, as president of the company, itis my responsibility to ensure that they extend that oversight to the company’s IT as well. In today’seconomy, and with our reliance on IT for competitive advantage, we simply cannot afford to apply to our IT anything less than the level of commitment we apply to overall governance.
