The Official Guide to Getting your PeopleCert ITIL 4 Managing Professional Certification
The ITIL 4 Managing Professional certification path is focused on how to run successful IT enabled services, teams and workflows. It was created to help IT Practitioners who work in technology and support digital teams across the business. The path consists of 4 courses, and we are often asked the best order to take the courses so here is some great input by course author Dr. Suzanne Van Hove. We hope you find this helpful and look forward to hearing from you.
- ITIL 4 Strategist: Direct, Plan and Improve (DPI) – DPI is a great starting point because it starts you, as the provider, on the strategic thinking/governance piece.
- ITIL 4 Strategist: Drive Stakeholder Value (DSV) – DSV then focusses on the customer journey – understanding what the customer wants/needs and addressing those requirements.
- ITIL 4 Strategist: Create, Deliver & Support (CDS) – CDS then looks at the processes to create, deliver and support the service.
- ITIL 4 Strategist: High Velocity IT (HVIT) – HVIT focusses on how disrupting technologies can be exploited/included in your design.
In my mind, HVIT should be taken last if only due to the heavy focus on technology. When designing a service, the focus should be on meeting the needs of the consumer and provider. If you already have a great customer focus, then you can jump into HVIT. Just remember it is the hardest and most intense of the four Managing Professional courses with much memorization of tables included.

Why ITIL 4 Direct, Plan & Improve is the Place to Start
By Dr. Suzanne Van Hove
We all know that Foundation is the first course in the ITIL 4 path, but where should you go from there? ITIL Direct, Plan & Improve (DPI) was the ITIL 4 Managing Professional class I enjoyed most delivering – it tells a story with a moral of “prepare and plan for great success in the future.”
Why Take DPI First?
DPI is the class that I would take first in order to understand the foundational elements of the Service Value Stream (SVS), and to prepare the environment for service creation and delivery, stakeholder management, and eventually looking at the high-velocity environment.
Focus On The Organization
Looking at the new ITIL® training schema and the importance of service value system, Governance and guiding principles are key to setting up a system that reflects the needs of the organization and consumer. ITIL 4 Direct, Plan and Improve focuses on those aspects, ensuring the foundational principles are in place so that the approving of new/changed products and services is accurate and beneficial to the organization and consumer.
Factors Critical to Your Success
The principles of governance, risk and compliance (GRC) are the main topics of DPI as well as organizational change management (OCM), continual improvement, and measurement and reporting. While these topics are may be a bit on the “non-exciting” side, they are crucial and fundamental to good service delivery.

Is ITIL 4 Strategic Leader the Pathway to Organizational Success?
I was talking to my good friend Corde Wager (ITIL 4 Managing Professional and all around good guy) today about how to explain the significance of the ITIL 4 Strategic Leader Program and he said:
“ITIL V3 showed us how to manage processes. With the growth of digital technology throughout the corporation and the advent of ITIL 4, organizations have to grow beyond processes and learn how to create successful digital direction for the entire organization and their customer base. To do this IT Leaders need to learn how to create and integrate a digital strategy. In addition, key managers and executives throughout the corporation need to be a part of this process. Technology is everywhere and this is just the beginning. Without an organizationally created and endorsed digital strategy, organizations will not see the future or be prepared for opportunities it offers.”
After I spoke to Corde, I received my weekly newsletter from Ian Sachs of Rick Resource that gives us the icing on the cake so to speak on the importance of becoming an ITIL 4 Strategic Leader. Make sure you don’t get left behind. I couldn’t have said it better (see below). Thank you Ian Sachs of Risk Resource.
Food for Thought: Projecting the Future
Many of the world’s most influential businesspeople and industry leaders failed to fully appreciate the capabilities of their own work while underestimating or misinterpreting the future. There is no better way to point this out than to consider some of the past century’s most prominent examples.
- 1893 – Postmaster General John Wanamaker stated that the U.S. mail would be delivered by stagecoach and horseback, even 100 years in the future.
- 1899 – Charles H. Duell, commissioner of the U.S. Office of Patents, said, “Everything that can be invented has been invented.”
- 1903 – The New York Times declared that flying machines were a waste of time just a week before the Wright brothers successfully flew their airplane at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
- 1927 – Harry M. Warner, one of the founders of Warner Brothers, remarked during the era of silent movies, “Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?”
- 1943 – Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, said “I think there is a world market for maybe five computers.”
- 2000 – John Antioco, CEO of Blockbuster, overlooked the capabilities of internet “streaming” and turned down an offer to buy Netflix for $50M. Blockbuster, the company that pioneered movie rentals, filed for bankruptcy in 2010.
As our society continues to course through exponential growth in technology, innovation, living standards, and of course, a pandemic, it’s important to remain prudent and to think through all possible outcomes and scenarios before turning down opportunities or accepting new ones. Leave your ego and stubbornness at the door and make room for more thoughts and opinions. Don’t be too quick to stick with comfortable decisions. History rewards those who were bold – the gamblers that bet on the future and not against it.
