Show notes

Our next generation of talent is technologically savvy, likes informality, embraces diversity, learns quickly, yet needs supervision.

Managing Threats from Third Party Providers Apr 08, 2015

Show notes

Most organizations today are essentially dependent on their suppliers and partners in order to deliver goods and services to their own customers.

Transforming Law Enforcement Through Technology Apr 01, 2015

Show notes

Crime never stops, and nor does the law in bringing it to justice. But as technology gets smarter, so do criminals, and local law enforcement should think of using all available resources to keep up. And when people's lives are at stake, those leading the charge know it's imperative to do all we can. So what do we mean when we talk about transforming law enforcement? What fundamental changes will it take, what is that dream state in policing, and how can new technologies, including messaging, social media, mobility, robotics and even "predictive policing" concepts raising increasingly sci-fi possibilities, help us get there?

Enabling Government Health Systems Mar 25, 2015

Show notes

While healthcare as an industry has made great strides in patience care and overall customer experience, state of Government supported health systems warrants serious attention. Lack of connectivity and interoperability among hospitals, rising re-entry and trauma cases related costs, inadequate reporting for securing federal funds is a partial list of issues plaguing the systems that need immediate attention. It requires cohesive effort from Government CIOs, Data Scientists, Policy Makers, and Researchers to solve this pressing problem. What is being done in this regard, challenges faced and results of related efforts?

Go From CIO to CEO Mar 04, 2015

Show notes

Today's digital economy has positioned the IT department at the forefront of strategic growth and initiative in business, and the CIO has increasingly been exposed to business units across the board. The CIO more than anyone should be positioned to take up the helm of the CEO, yet the CIO that does is still the exception rather than the rule. As those who have taken this step will attest, knowing the business is not the same as leading it. How does the CIO acquire the skills, experience and mindset that helps them to become the complete package required of the CEO?

Measuring IT's MPG Feb 25, 2015

Show notes

Everyone tracks the Miles Per Gallon of their car for the simple reason that they want to know how much mileage they're getting for their money. Yet CFO's evaluate IT spend in terms of ROI; how much value creation will it produce for the dollar? Should the question become, how much "distance" are we really getting from our IT? How do we gauge cost efficiency within IT? What tools and parameters should we utilize for this measurement, and what is the MPG rating of today's IT model?

Chief Integration Officer – The New CIO Feb 11, 2015

Show notes

IT is no longer the monolith it once was. External business units are creating challenges for CIOs traditionally looking to put everything under one roof. But instead of fighting the battle to continually fight turf wars, how do you knit all the solutions across business units together? With the rise of the Consumerization of IT, can the CIO become the Chief Integration Officer? How would it make sense to introduce this new role as the point person to ensuring the business stays coherent and connected, and how will they navigate the many technical challenges toward making an integrated business a reality?
