Seminar Details

The role of the CIO is changing because IT now forms the infrastructure of the business, it is often treated as the medium for change management, but any CIO will know to his cost that an IT programme given the task of change management without the buy in of the CEO is doomed to failure. For the new breed of CIO this presents an opportunity for them to take their next step on the career path to become the CEO.

This panel will investigate what transformational leadership is and what it can achieve:

- What is 'transformational leadership'?
- What do I need to get there?
- Is the CIO now the 'Chief Integration Officer'?
- What new skills sets are needed for CIO's of tomorrow
- How do you become an E-Leader?
- Where have the biggest transformations in business been made to date?
- How do you transition from resource-based to results-based IT
- How to incorporate 'fast to fail' into the IT programme
