The Center for CIO Leadership is pleased to offer a free Salon, “Increasing the Value of Technology in the C-Suite: Challenge and Opportunity.” An event in New York City taking place on Thursday, October 21 at 5:30 PM.
This Salon will feature an interactive panel comprised of C-Suite executives who will share their perspectives on current challenges and opportunities, and underscore the imperative for CIOs, as members of the executive team, to have significant impact on their business. Our panelists include:
- Marianne Brown, President and Chief Executive Officer, Omgeo
- Jim Metzger, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President, Finance & Administration, TM Forum
- Lou Trebino, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer, The Harry Fox Agency
The panel session will be followed by breakout discussions on how to integrate these important insights into your own organization, and on how to increase your impact as a member of the executive team.
This peer-to-peer conversation will focus on what C-Suite executives expect from their CIOs to drive business growth and effectively communicate the value of technology. Panelists will address the challenge of how CIOs can secure a key role in leading the business. Given the unique value that this conversation will provide, we encourage you to invite one or more of your executive team peers to join you at this special event.
