Description:

The ISACA® Journal is one of ISACA's leading member benefits and provides current and relevant information related to IT governance, audit, security, risk and compliance.

The proposed Innovation Governance column will appear in the ISACA® Journal 4-6 times per year beginning in 2019. This column is aimed at professionals who are looking for information on how to implement enterprise-wide innovation efforts, manage innovation-related risk and leverage the opportunities associated with innovation. The goal of this column is to provide readers with practical knowledge on how to help innovation efforts succeed, how to measure innovation and how to obtain c-suite buy-in for innovation efforts.

Potential topics to explore via the column include:

  • Quantifying the success of innovation
  • Innovating with the bottom line in mind
  • Employee roles in the innovation process
  • Leveraging a framework for innovation
  • Garnering executive support for innovation
  • Project management in a rapidly innovating enterprise
  • Balancing top-down and bottom-up innovation
  • Developing a scope for innovation efforts

The column is approximately 1000-1500 words. The contents of the column will be subject to internal and editorial review.
