Steve Burrows, Prinicipal Consultant at SBA, has been elected to the committee of BCS ELITE (Effective Leadership in Information Technology) in the 2010 elections. He will serve a two year term on the committee.
The ELITE Group of the BCS (The Chartered Institute for Information Technology) is the UK lead forum for IT Directors and Senior Managers to exchange experiences, views and expectations on how information systems should be managed to achieve business objectives.
Steve, who has served 10 years as board director responsible for IT in a large UK company, also serves on the advisory panel of the Computer Weekly 500 Club (CW500) which focuses on the needs of IT leaders in FTSE500 organisations. He says "I'm honoured and delighted to have been elected to the committee of BCS ELITE. I hope to use my appointment to elevate awareness amongst IT leaders of their need to take responsibility for the performance of the entire organisation they work in, and to raise awareness amongst business leaders of the importance of IT in ensuring the success of their businesses and the need to look at what IT might do for them in the future, instead of focusing on that which has already been achieved."
