Where we work, where we consume goods and services, where innovation happens, where business value is generated — it all has changed. This raises the question — where next? Gartner shares how you as a CIO and technology executive must lead when your frame of reference, or the “where” of everything, has shifted and disruption and uncertainty continue. This means you must reach beyond what you know today and completely rethink the roles of people, data and technology when creating value for tomorrow.

IT organisations are under pressure to innovate rapidly and scale at speed. But it is rare that they have the full complement of capabilities already in-house. It is natural to seek to lean on the capabilities of external partners and suppliers – our ‘digital ecosystem’. But how can organisations best leverage these ecosystems? What are the dangers? And how can IT create an empowered digital ecosystem that accelerates rather than hinders their innovation ambitions?
