Unit Description

Managers) to support their organisations in creating business value with technology.

The unit takes an enterprise-wide, managerial perspective on how IT executives can facilitate the transition towards digital business and set the executive agenda for IT in larger organisations.

governing IT decisions in the organization. As such IT governance is ultimately responsible for ensuring the creation of business value with IT and changing in
nature due to IT innovation.
