Cloud Computing for Decision-makers and Leaders

Cloud Computing for Decision-makers and Leaders.

Technology is fast-paced, and cloud computing is evolving at a record speed. Unfortunately, even seasoned information technology workers can barely keep up with innovation in this space. Cloud Computing for Decision Makers is targeted at decision-makers and leaders, empowering participants to advance their enterprises' cloud initiatives. Learners will be able to define and describe the history of information technology leadership in the context of cloud computing. What's critical here is that the learner knows how to compare and contrast the older traditional ways of decision-making in preparation for their new cloud computing leadership role.
