Beating IT Risks is the essential guide for managers at risk from information technology failure. It provides proven models and evaluation tools that will guide senior managers and IT leaders in their decision-making, monitoring and negotiation roles. Combining real-world PA Consulting Group case studies with solid theory and direct author experience, it sits above more specialist titles to help readers develop an integrated, cohesive understanding of IT risk and how to combat it. The authors cover all the different kinds of IT risk, and offer explicit guidance about what to consider when implementing a risk management approach to best meet an individual company's needs.
Ernie Jordan has worked as an academic and IT practitioner in four continents and is now Professor of Management at the Macquarie Graduate School of Management in Sydney, Australia. He teaches and leads a research team in IT management, focusing on IT strategy, governance and risk.
Luke Silcock consults extensively on all aspects of IT management for PA Consulting Group and its numerous major international clients. Since graduating from the University of New South Wales in 1992 he has maintained a keen focus on the practical aspects of IT strategy and implementation in his work with IT managers and business leaders.
