The Benefits and Risks of Technology


Sandra L. Sherman
Manager, Vice President
Project Management & User Support
UNION BANK
San Diego, California



The ability to assess and weigh the risks and benefits associated with innovation in technology requires much more than solely keeping abreast of new developments. Effective risk management requires careful assessment, often across divergent business lines with sometimes disparate and unrealistic objectives. The added pressure of compliance requirements, keeping up with the competition, and navigating the intricacies and complex requirements
of internal networks and external applications requires careful planning, testing, and coordinating buy-in. As technologies move forward at lightning speed so too does our need for constant transformation. Join Sandra for a candid discussion of the importance of knowing the risks and challenges of project management in an environment that requires ever increasing speed in implementation, sometimes unrealistic budget constraints, and constituencies which might not always seem friendly.
