The Workshop Series 04

The 7 Roadmaps to Your Cloud Journey 

  • Often, I&T Leaders focus is primarily on the technical implementation roadmap, frequently provided by a cloud vendor (cf : the Hyperscalers’ “Cloud adoption frameworks”) : as a result, Cloud Computing is yet another IT tooling kit. And in doing so, I&T Leaders lack a concise viewpoint on the role of Cloud Computing for the business, which will result in higher cloud operating costs, disjointed management, security vulnerabilities and overall dissatisfaction.

  • Instead, Cloud Computing should be acknowledged as a technology enabler for the business to deliver better outcomes, such as improved time-to-market, higher margins, and enhanced customer (and employee) experience. I&T leaders must recognize that their organization’s Cloud journey will not be a rigid, linear progression and will involve developing existing or net-new capabilities across multiple dimensions : Strategy, Governance, People & Talents, Operating Model and Engineering.

  • In this Workshop series, we will be building on these observations : we’ll use our Accelerator The 7 Roadmaps to Your Cloud JourneyFramework to plan for the rights Cloud capabilities, both Foundational (Strategy, Value, & Governance) and Operational (Organization, Talents & Culture, as well as Engineering ) . The achievement of our collective endeavor will be tangible outcomes and consumables : the release of the Playbook to Your Cloud Journey and the outlining of your 7 custom-tailored Roadmaps to your Cloud Journey.
