Strategic thinking from the Gartner IAM Summit and beyond [13:52]

The transition to digital is accelerating. And it’s causing the dynamics of Identity and Access Management to change rapidly.

In this podcast hosted by Evan Schuman, Edgile Managing Partner Lawrence Wolf talks about the shifts in thinking necessary for an organization’s leaders to reboot their IAM program.

Strategy-first approach

In the past, IAM was focused around IT infrastructure and technology products. Today, the focus is on a holistic vision around people, process, data and technology. “In this environment, you need to start with a strategy,” says Wolf. “I like to say you set your compass before you get in the boat so you know where you’re going within a multi-year program.”
