Testing Centers of Excellence are becoming more and more common today. However, do you know how to take your TCoE from average to world-class? In this session, James will discuss the winning formula for taking your TCoE to the next level. Understand how to sell and grow an enterprise TCoE. To "up your game," it is important to remain relevant to the business and show ongoing value and efficiency savings. Learn to examine the business aspects related to running a TCoE and how to best optimize operations. James will discuss the value levers and cost savings that can be measured by the TCoE. He will talk about the 'extra' non-testing activities required to be implemented to motivate staff, and empower rapid growth and maturity. Finally, he will reveal how to remain competitive and relevant to the organization to meet changing business priorities.
