<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>From Amazon’s author blog:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span class="plogBodyText"><em>IT Governance should be the wellspring from which all other IT activities take place (</em>Excerpt from <em>CISA Exam Guide)<br />
</em></span></p>
<p>“These are literally the first words I have written in my newest book, <em>CISA All-In-One Exam Guide</em>.  The statement says it all: all corporate IT activities should flow downward from corporate goals and objectives that are translated into an IT strategy. In turn, this strategy should be realized through policies, architectures, and projects that are implemented and managed.”   Peter H. Gregory</p>
