IT Leadership 16 – 19 June 2013 • Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel, Dubai, UAE Meet Your Expert Course Director

Course Introduction

David McKean founded IT Leaders after 10 years as a senior IT director and CIO. His most recent corporate role was as the IT director for Cable & Wireless in the UK. Previously, he was CIO for UPC in the Netherlands and AT&T in Asia. David has pioneered IT leadership thinking, bringing clarity to a complex subject.

IT has become critical in shaping new strategies and redefining the organisation and the industry. The new paradigm calls for technology leaders to align and integrate IT with the business processes and goals as it is becoming even more crucial to achieve and sustain a competitive edge in today’s volatile environment.

David’s international successes include Bouygues Telecom’s GSM license bid and network roll-out in France. He also has extensive sales and marketing experience, having worked for Hewlett Packard for a number of years.

This course offers an approach to plan the fusion of IT to achieve and sustain leadership. The course will be presented by a former CIO of an international blue chip organisation. Hundreds of senior IT managers from all over the world have already benefited from this management and leadership course.

David is a regular presenter at international conferences and one of the founders of the FastTrack series on management. He is a chartered engineer and a graduate of Cambridge University.

It looks at eight key technology leadership skills — those that, according to our research, will make the biggest difference to your success. This model is based on work with IT professionals in all industries and geographies, coupled with the course leader’s experience as a former CIO and IT director.
