What is the quickest and best way to sell CobiT to IT Managers?

As we all know, there is no cavalry to come to the rescue. As the rest of the Implementation Tools point out, the organisational culture is vitally important. A proactive culture will be more receptive than one that is not. However, consider emphasising the business aspects and the fact that CobiT does not get lost in technical terminology. Furthermore, point out that CobiT was designed the way an IT manager thinks, and that one of its greatest benefits is that everything is documented in one place.

Furthermore, with the addition of the Management Guidelines, CobiT provides management with new capabilities to support self-assessment of organizational status, comparison with industry best practices, alignment with enterprise objectives, implementation decision making and performance monitoring. The maturity models, critical success factors, key goal indicators and key performance indicators provided in these guidelines can assist management in better aligning IT with the overall enterprise strategy by ensuring that IT is an enabler of the enterprise goals.
