Reimagining IT spend: From Cost Centre to Strategic Business Value Driver
At the TBM Conference in Miami, we shared with attendees how Strategy Collection can give leaders org-wide alignment on how strategic priorities cascade down into work, investments, and resources. Now, in this webinar, we’ll follow up with a brief demo of how Strategy Collection, powered by Rovo, can help leaders reimagine an operating model that gives them the visibility they desire.

Business leaders and CIOs are trapped in an impossible balancing act: expected to deliver breakthrough innovation while simultaneously slashing technology costs. With 40% of SaaS spending now happening outside IT's control and 82% of executives scrambling to contain runaway cloud expenditures, the traditional approach is failing. This isn't just a budget balancing act — it's a systemic problem that can leave you vulnerable to competition that has figured out a way to do things faster and better.
The breakthrough? Transforming IT spending from a financial burden into your organization's most powerful competitive advantage. When technology investments are directly linked to strategic outcomes and business priorities, everything changes—budgets become strategic weapons rather than constraints, and every dollar spent accelerates your market position rather than merely "keeping the lights on."
