21st Century CIO Makeover: The Reveal

Tech leaders with a traditional “CIO” title face increasing pressure to change with the times. Why? According to Asuret’s Michael Krigsman, “In the old days of corporate technology, experts guarded big computer centers and served as the high priests of technology.

Service delivery organizations must adapt quickly: culture, people, process and technology.” What’s going on here? Is this just a fashionable trend or a long-term impact on your company? Will provider-customer co-innovation continue? Can customer service be the key differentiator between you and your competition?
