Do you recognize this?

A lot of ITSM departments have problems delivering value to their business. Despite all the training investments still ITSM teams are not able to perform according to the Service Levels. The services are to unpredictable, unrepeatable and expensive.

Why is this?

  1. Most of the training is focused on getting certified, which means, “Train to pass the exam”. But we forget to teach the students how to apply the theory in day-to-day work.
  2. Most of the success of Service Delivery is Attitude and Behavior, this is not what is trained during classes.
  3. IT is so internal focused, that we forget to focus on the Business. How do we organize our teams, and how do we apply ITSM best practices to meet that objective?

“This Apollo 13 simulation gave my team a clear focus on how to align the IT services to the Business, we had fun, we saved the Crew and we took at least 5 lessons learned back to the office!”
