What is the QLC?

The Quest Leadership Community is a group of senior level IT and business professionals working toward the optimal use of technology to drive value in business, with a focus on customers who make use of the main Oracle ERP business suites – JD Edwards (World and EnterpriseOne), PeopleSoft and E-Business Suite.  QLC does this through creating collaborate relationships between business leaders, their peers, their teams and the entities providing their technology solutions.  They take their members to a new level of networking and business engagement – it is the ultimate peer group for C and Director level staff and their direct reports.  They delve into many timely leadership and IT Management issues and gain insights from one another on how they use their applications and leverage IT in running their businesses. The QLC understands that everybody has access to the same technology packages, and those that use their portfolio most effectively will differentiate themselves from the competition.

Why Join the QLC?

QLC serves its community by providing these senior staff with:

• In person networking and learning events, such as the CIO Forum at Collaborate
• Monthly targeted information via the Executive Download
• Providing access to your peers at other customers for knowledge sharing, real world experiences and recommendations, and discussions around where you and your peers are heading.
• A portal of content – designed with you in mind
• On line “Total Learning Experience” events – ways to learn about and help plot your direction on business technology trends.  Upcoming TLEs for 2012 include ones on mobility, Business Analytics, Operational efficiency and governance, and more.  For December 2011, QLC presents “Optimizing and Extending ERP”

Why does TeamCain believe in the QLC?

As a partner in the JD Edwards ERP space since 1996, a long standing Quest partner, and a solution and service provider, TeamCain knows how important it is for senior staff (in IT in particular) to be able to get the information they need to plot the success of their organization.  It really doesn’t matter if you are a new customer of Oracle JD Edwards World, Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, or Oracle PeopleSoft as your business engine, or if you have been using these solutions for years.  As you go forward, you need to be able to get the information you need and to speak with your peers to map your technology and business roadmap.  Invariably, someone else has been through what you are about to undertake and can help out.  QLC actively searches out where its members are going and gets content to help.  It is a real community – one that can help you.

As a Gold partner of Quest and Oracle, we think QLC is a fabulous resource.
