According to MIT research, CIOs have more strategic responsibilities in the digital age. They spend less time managing IT services and more time improving business processes and innovating for external customers. CIOs also are increasingly relied upon to build digital-savvy organizations; as a result, they spend more than a third of their time engaged with non-technical peers. This panel discussion with leading CIOs will explore best practices that expand strategic roles and foster digital leadership throughout an organization.
