| Three out of five enterprises plan to grow market share, and executives expect CIOs and IT to contribute to that growth and performance. CIOs have traditionally responded by reducing IT and enterprise costs. To reach the next level, CIOs will need to create new sources of enterprise leverage. As IT permeates all aspects of life from business to culture and society, enterprises will need to adjust and transform accordingly for survival. All this demands transformations of leadership, management, people, skills and organizations. So, what does the future hold for CIOs? How CIOs will need to work in the future to make these changes happen is the subject of this keynote. | |

| A few organizations have truly succeeded at innovation -- they have developed the disciplines, processes, culture and management to create breakthrough services, products or operations. During the next five years, these and other organizations will leverage new thinking plus new collaboration processes and technology to build powerful innovation networks and programs . These capabilities will allow us to engage not only employees in innovation, but also customers, partners and experts at large. Successful innovators will use social technologies and other techniques to break the boundaries of traditional approaches. | |

| CIOs stand at a crossroads. The role of each CIO is inevitably changing because of two perspectives on IT. On the one hand, there is the lingering disaffection with IT from the Internet bust, the over-expenditure on technology capacity, the popular press's assertion that IT is now irrelevant in discussion of competitive advantage and the hysteria about IT jobs moving overseas. On the other hand, IT is gaining renewed interest for several reasons, including business executives’ desire for innovation, pressures from the regulatory environment and because technology plays a foundational, if not a central, role in virtually every product and service.
If you are a CIO who has been brought in to turn things around, you may be overwhelmed by the list of problems to solve; if you’ve been in the same role for a while, then you may be wondering why it takes so long to get the team focused on what you think is important. We’ll share best practices for these challenging issues and you'll leave with your personal action list, reviewed and validated with your peers. | |
