"HOW TO DOUBLE YOUR NETOPS PRODUCTIVITY" WITHOUT WASTING TIME AND MONEY JUST BUYING TOOLS
Introducing NetOps 2.0 Transformation - The DIRE Methodology
NetOps 2.0 Transformation is a deep dive into why NetOps 1.0 does not scale in 2021 and how to transform painlessly into the DevOps/NetOps 2.0 era.
... No more dealing with unhappy customers, who want discounts and assurances.
... No more wasting time finding a solution that doesn't widely exist today.
... No more answering to the boss when things go wrong, even when it's not the network's fault.
In under 150 pages, the author will outline the challenges associated with network operations organizations, why we're hitting the limits of NetOps 1.0, and provide a 4-step formula for transforming to NetOps 2.0.
NetOps 2.0 Transformation - The DIRE Methodology has been in development for 27 years and adopted by professionals at Fortune 500 companies.
The author of NetOps 2.0 Transformation was in the same position as you. He was transforming a NetOps organization but didn't know how to do it in a way that got results.
Since the tech bubble burst in 2000, operations have been running on shoestring budgets. Ray realized that if he wanted to transform to NetOps 2.0 (without paying ridiculous sums of money to a consultant), he'd need to learn everything there is to know about network operations.
So, that's what he did. He already had many years of experience to build on, so he read blogs, listened to tons of podcasts, and spend hours on the Internet, learning every secret he could from the best in the business. He spoke with 100s of different colleagues worldwide about their specific challenges and how they solved them.

NetOps 2.0 Transformation is super easy-to-use.
... even if you're new to IT Leadership.
... even if you work on the network, but not as a Manager or Director.
... even if you've only just begun your networking career.
