New in Role Information

New in Role: A community of like-minded peers who want to make an impact fast when starting a new leadership role. How can IT and Security leaders make the most of their first year in a new role? We know that starting a new IT or Security leadership role can be daunting. You’re under pressure to make an impact fast and have to balance the business’ priorities with personal goals – which can be difficult when building relationships from scratch. Join the New in Role Dinner Debates where you’ll get to discuss these challenges and experiences with other IT and Security leaders one year or less into their current role. Why attend? The New in Role Dinner Debates provides an opportunity for technology leaders to hear the experiences of their peers and discuss their current challenges in a safe and congenial environment. Come prepared to share: bring along your tips and best practices, and benefit from the power of collective wisdom. Themes for discussion include: • Aligning personal priorities with business priorities at onset of role. • Gauging the maturity of your new organisation. • How to balance fixing immediate problems with making strategic improvements? • Examples of 'quick wins' to build trust and credibility early. • Relationship-building tactics for internal and external stakeholders.
