The Coming Enterprise Service Desk on BrightTALK
Live On-Demand
ITIL, and more broadly, IT Service Management, is now a 31-year-old discipline. It was originally established in the UK under the government of Margaret Thatcher in 1985. For those working in IT Service and Support, the implications of this are profound. First, it means that IT support professionals have an enormous body of knowledge to draw upon for industry best practices. Secondly, it almost always means that other corporate services, such as HR, facilities, safety, etc., are far less mature than IT Service and Support. Savvy IT managers recognize this opportunity, and are increasingly taking up the challenge of providing enterprise leadership in corporate services.
I want to challenge leaders from both IT and non-IT services to give serious thought to the role of enterprise services in your organization. This is the kind of opportunity that doesn’t come along very often. It has the potential to transform the delivery of all services in the enterprise, while saving money and improving the quality of service that your customers receive. Moreover, it can be a game changer for your career. Enterprises worldwide are in desperate need of leadership on this issue. So if you have been looking for that next big career opportunity, it may be right in front of you!

Emerging Trends in ITSM: Any Time, Any Place: The Ultimate Customer Experience! on BrightTALK
Live On-Demand
The growth of multichannel support and BYOD policies has opened up a plethora of new avenues for customers to engage with IT support. This has the potential to create a richer, more satisfying experience for the customer, but savvy support organizations recognize that it isn’t good enough to simply replicate the same service in different channels. It’s really about maximizing the customer experience for each unique channel and device. In this session, you’ll find out how progressive support organizations have harnessed the potential of “any time, any place” support to drive and sustain high levels of customer engagement. You’ll review case studies and benchmarking data that illustrate the power of multichannel, multidevice support in today’s complex IT enterprise.
The ROI of ITSM: Know Your Financial Impact!
Live On-Demand
Return on Investment (ROI) is one of the most common and important measures of financial performance in the business world. It is the ultimate measure of success for any business. Most companies, business units, and departments track ROI on an ongoing basis, and use this metric not only to make intelligent business decisions, but to justify their very existence. Yet fewer than 10% of all technical support organizations utilize this critical metric.
Support groups that understand and quantify their ROI – and specifically link it to ITSM – gain a number of important advantages. Chief among the benefits of tracking ROI is an enhanced level of visibility and credibility within the organization, and the ability to obtain appropriate resourcing based upon the ROI of ITSM. Unfortunately ROI remains an abstraction to most in the industry. So how do we calculate ROI and quantify the value of IT Service Management to the enterprise?
This webinar will present a simple yet compelling methodology for calculating the ROI of ITSM. Benchmarking data will be presented that objectively demonstrates the relationship between ROI and ITSM maturity. Finally, a case study will be presented from a FORTUNE 100 company that adopted an ROI methodology to justify their ITSM initiatives.

The Zen of Support on BrightTALK

The words “Customer Support” and “Customer Service” accurately describe the role of Service Desk and Desktop Support Professionals. Unfortunately, these words sometimes carry negative connotations, and do not accurately convey the strategic potential of user support. The fact is very few support organizations operate in a Strategic Paradigm. The result is that most do not fully exploit the inherent leverage of user support to achieve a competitive advantage for IT.
In this webcast, Jeff Rumburg, Managing Partner at MetricNet, will discuss what it means to be a Strategic Support organization, and provide case study examples of support organizations that operate in a Strategic Support Paradigm.
