Measuring Impact: Cost Justification for Information Services
October 22, 2008

Have you ever wondered how you can make the financial decision makers understand the value that your information center brings to the organization? Do you ever feel that you're not speaking the same language, and that they just don't quite "get" it? Do you wish you could communicate your value in terms they would understand?

Then, this seminar is for you!

You'll learn how to measure and communicate the impact of your services on the key business initiatives of your organization, using common finance concepts. You'll learn how to write an impact statement that really makes an impact. This workshop builds on ROI principles, and provides the "big picture" view on how to justify the information center's costs, and ultimately, its existence.
