Agenda
Our Gartner experts, who are at the top of their fields are currently engaged in creating the new exciting agenda for 2024 Gartner CIO Leadership Forum. We will offer the latest trends, research-based insights, expert advise and much more. Gartner CIO Leadership Forum 2024 agenda with be coming soon.
Meanwhile, please have a look at the agenda highlights for Gartner CIO Leadership Forum from 2023.
Over two days at Gartner CIO Leadership Forum 2023, the agenda focused on the CIO role as the leader of the digital experience while building leadership and executive skills needed to accelerate innovative business and technology strategies.
As a CIO in an era of ongoing disruption, your guidance on the creative application of new and emerging technologies is essential to business growth and competitive advantage. We covered short- and long-term strategies that lead attendees and their team to success in dynamic and uncertain times.
The IT organization no longer owns all IT. Today you must develop fusion teams of highly skilled individuals. You must find ways to build digital dexterity and manage risk for the organization. This track helped reshape attitudes for greater agility, ESG programs, risk management, and enterprise operating models.
Top performing leaders are people centric and focus on relationships. Your technical skills may have gotten you to where you are now but they won’t keep you there. You need to improve your executive relationships and develop yourself to amplify your impact.
CIOs own ensuring digital foundations exist for the business growth opportunities CEOs expect. This includes resolving funding for the right initiatives, ensuring adaptive continuous strategy and execution. Your challenge is to create a modular architecture that empowers scalability and growth.
Having the talent to deliver against the ambitious technology agenda is a struggle in today’s environment. You need to use unconventional approaches to find talent, create an inclusive environment to retain, and create a culture that is emboldened by change and innovation.
CEOs have ambitious agendas that require technology. You must step into the opportunities that now exist across the enterprise. The role of the CIO is expanding, not shrinking, and you must take a leadership role in delivering on digital dividends.
