Episode 2 — Define what “governance of enterprise IT” means in daily leadership decisions (1 Governance of Enterprise IT)
This episode explains governance of enterprise IT as a leadership system for making IT-related decisions that reliably produce business outcomes, manage risk, and demonstrate accountability. You’ll distinguish governance from management by focusing on direction, oversight, and decision rights rather than day-to-day execution, and you’ll connect GEIT to what executives actually do: prioritize investments, set boundaries, approve tradeoffs, and demand evidence that IT is delivering value. We’ll define core governance elements such as policies, decision forums, escalation paths, and performance expectations, then walk through realistic examples like approving a cloud migration, resolving conflicting stakeholder priorities, or choosing between speed and control in delivery. By the end, you’ll be able to recognize governance issues in scenario questions and choose answers that strengthen clarity, accountability, and measurable outcomes.
