Enterprises that succeed in scaling fusion teams deliver new digital capabilities faster while simultaneously achieving greater efficiency. But they also approach Agile as a wide-ranging new way of working, rather than just a software engineering methodology. This highly-interactive, discussion-based session showed how CIOs have helped their C-Suite peers pivot the culture of corporate functions (IT, HR, Finance, Procurement, Legal, etc.) toward agile ways of working, in support of fusion teams.

The demand for business optimization and transformation using digital technology is increasing.

Under these circumstances, let's share our wisdom based on specific examples and think about how we can strategically optimize IT costs.

CIOs have an outsized opportunity to contribute to improved DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) by acting as an ally to people in marginalized or underrepresented groups.

Digitalization has had a significant impact on management, and corporate strategies are no longer viable without an IT strategy in place. During such changes, the CIO's role inevitably continues to grow in importance.
While IT organizations' mission has been to acquire and train talent with IT backgrounds to build and operate systems, we discuss whether this applies to the current situation.
IT organizations cannot become proactive by using measures that are simply an extension of existing policies.
In this roundtable, we explore about the type of talent that CIOs are searching for and how to acquire it.

Executive leaders' duties have become increasingly interconnected, communal and overlapping, making problem-solving more difficult and increasing time spent in ELT positions rather than functional leadership roles.

Remember the days of "decision support?" We've gone full circle. A major theme moving forward is how to become a data-driven company and make data-driven decisions. But much more concrete than before. Why will decision making become the next competitive differentiator? How can we link data-driven decisions to business value?

According to the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap Report 2022, Japan's gender gap index ranks at 116 out of 146 countries, the lowest among the G7 countries by a wide margin. Japan's GDP is the third in the world, overtaken by China and expected to be overtaken by India within a few years. Its GDP per capita and happiness ranking are even lower at twenty-seventh and forty-seventh position, respectively. Japanese CIOs have a clear mission to leverage digital technology and aim for a one-shot reversal in this highly uncertain business environment.
