    Apply the VeriSM Model and Management Mesh

    Work with the VeriSM model, its governance and service management principles, and the management mesh that integrates resources, environment, and emerging and management practices.

    Combine Progressive Practices

    See how ITIL, Agile, DevOps, Lean, SIAM and other practices sit within the mesh, and learn to select and combine them based on your organisation's context and needs.

    Harness Innovative Technologies

    Understand how cloud, artificial intelligence, automation, IoT and analytics influence service management, and how technology shapes the mesh and the practices you can adopt.
