POLESTAR ITSM - A G2G3 IT SERVICE MANAGEMENT SIMULATION
"Games based learning can significantly accelerate the transfer and application of knowledge" - Gartner, Waldier Arevolo De Azevedo Filho
The benefits of IT Service Management (ITSM)
The business benefits of IT Service Management (ITSM) best practice are well known. ITSM can help your enterprise tightly align IT and business goals, design and deploy IT services that support those goals, and enhance the efficiency of day-to-day operations to deliver high-quality services.
In order to achieve these benefits, many organizations are formally adopting frameworks such as the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL®), aiming to achieve international ITSM best practice standards such as ISO/IEC 20000 or undergoing an IT Governance program.
But driving acceptance and widespread adoption of ITSM and ITIL® can be a challenge. Demonstrating the benefits of best practice to decision-makers who are unfamiliar with ITSM isn’t always easy. And getting your people "on board" with ITSM initiatives can become an expensive, time-consuming training proposition.
