‘ITIL Leader: Digital & IT Strategy (DITS)’ is a module in the ‘ITIL 4 Strategic Leader (SL)’ stream. It covers how to accommodate high-level business strategies and goals when managing and directing IT teams and departments.
The module offers insight into a number of tools and best practices that are extremely useful for senior IT service managers who must regularly answer to and address the needs of stakeholders.
‘ITIL Strategic Leader (SL)’ is one of the branches of the ITIL 4 certification path. It features modules that recognize the value of the framework for all digitally-enabled services rather than just those associated with IT operations.
Upon passing the ‘Direct, Plan & Improve (DPI)’ and ‘’Digital & IT Strategy (DITS)’ examinations, a candidate will earn the designation of ‘ITIL 4 Strategic Leader’. This will demonstrate their understanding of how IT impacts business strategy and vice versa.
If a candidate has already passed the DPI exam as part of the ‘Managing Professional (MP)’ stream, they will not need to take the exam a second time.
Students start with ‘ITIL Foundation’. Passing the Foundation exam then enables them to choose modules in the ‘Managing Professional’ or ‘Strategic Leader’ streams.
According to Payscale, certified ITIL practitioners can earn between $51,000 and over $259,000 (or £18,000 and over £118,000), depending on their experience, role, and certification level. Even sitting a Foundation course can have significant benefits for ITSM professionals.
‘ITIL v4’ is ITIL 4. Previous iterations of the framework were treated as ‘versions’, resulting in names like ‘v3’. However, ITIL 4 does not follow the same format, as it will be updated on a regular basis.
ITIL 4 can be integrated with several other frameworks, including Agile, DevOps, and Lean. Some practitioners even use it alongside PRINCE2.
