Live webinar: The new Microsoft stack demands new visibility before renewal

November 5, 2026 

Microsoft renewals are becoming harder to navigate. New bundles, rising prices and growing audit pressure make it essential to understand what you own, what you use and where you may be overspending.

Join Rich Gibbons, Head of Microsoft Intelligence at Synyega, and Jeffrey West, Solutions Advisory Director Data & Content at Flexera on 5 November for a practical webinar on closing visibility gaps, uncovering savings and building a stronger position before your next Microsoft renewal.

Live webinar: Best practices for scaling ServiceNow operations without over-engineering or burnout

November 3, 2026

As ServiceNow environments grow, teams are often asked to do more with the same resources.

More workflows, more automation requests, more reporting needs, and more stakeholder expectations can quickly create operational drag. 

The challenge is not simply how to scale the platform. It is how to scale ServiceNow operations sustainably, without adding unnecessary complexity, increasing technical debt, or burning out the team. Join Clayton Starko and James Dalley on November 3 for a practical discussion on simplifying workflows, prioritizing automation, clarifying ownership, and protecting team capacity. 

Here’s a question for you: what is making it hardest to scale your ServiceNow operations right now: backlog growth, automation requests, reporting noise, unclear ownership, or team capacity?

Beyond ServiceNow: How to govern your entire technology stack in the age of AI

Tuesday, October 6, 2026

Most teams can answer, “What technology do we have?”

The harder question is: “Who owns the decision when cost, risk, usage, and value all point in different directions?”

As AI, SaaS, cloud, software, and hardware decisions spread across more teams, governance becomes less about having more data and more about creating shared accountability. Join Clayton Starko and James Dalley on October 6 for a practical discussion on how to connect visibility, ownership, decision rights, and action across the full technology stack.

Here’s a question for you: Where does governance get stuck most often in your organization - ownership, decision-making, accountability, or disconnected data? 

Save your spot here 

Why do so many value conversations stall?

It's rarely because teams lack data. More often, it's because technical metrics and executive priorities aren't speaking the same language.

Leadership teams are asking:

• How are we reducing costs? 
• Where are we lowering risk? 
• How are we making better decisions? 

Meanwhile, IT teams are focused on asset coverage, inventory, and data quality. 

The challenge isn't collecting the data. It's translating the story.

Next week, Mary LaRosa (Estée Lauder) joins James Dalley and Clayton Starko to discuss practical ways to bridge that gap and build more credible value conversations with executives.

What has been your biggest challenge when communicating technology value to leadership?

The teams earning executive confidence aren't just reporting better. They're communicating differently.

We've noticed something interesting. 

The teams that earn the most executive support aren't necessarily the teams with the most data. They're the teams that can explain what that data means for the business.

Instead of reporting on CMDB health, asset coverage, or software inventory, they connect those insights to outcomes leadership cares about: 

• Cost savings 
•  Risk reduction 
• Operational resilience 
• Better decision-making 

That's where many value conversations stall. The data is there. The business impact isn't always obvious.

That's why we're excited to welcome Mary LaRosa, Director, Business Case & Cost Optimisation at Estée Lauder, to our next session on September 1. 

Together, we'll explore how to connect operational insight to business outcomes and communicate technology value in a way that resonates with executive stakeholders.
