How CIOs Can Design an Organization and Talent Strategy for the Future

In the age of AI, amongst all CIO priorities, designing an organization and talent strategy remains at the top. CIOs need to know how to address this with today’s challenges as, according to Gartner, 79% of CIOs and senior IT leaders had planned to increase their IT staff levels in 2024, projecting 5% average growth rate for full-time equivalents. With high demand for skills like GenAI, AI/machine learning (ML), cybersecurity, analytics and data platforms, there is a risk for compensation outbidding. Plus, CIOs also need to look for force multipliers, such as business technologists, who reside outside of IT to fulfill the promise of their digital transformation agendas. What actions can CIOs take to stay ahead of competition and hire top IT talent?

In this unique complimentary webinar, part 5 of a 5-part series, a panel of former senior IT executives, now Gartner Executive Partners, will provide practical guidance on how a CIO can develop an IT talent strategy to meet their needs and align to business goals in their organization. We’ll address one of the top 5 questions CIOs are asking, which is: How do I design my organization and talent strategy for today’s challenges? You’ll gain guidance into how these Executive Partners coach and advise CIOs, like you, on the actions CIOs can take to recruit top IT talent by outlining the workshops, tools and resources that can help you on your journey. Leave this session with answers to your vital questions and an inside look at what a Gartner partnership will look like for you and your organization.
