Get Out of the Back Room and Into the Board Room: Understanding Business Needs and Meeting Expectations



Many government CIOs have been perceived and positioned as back-office managers. But many CIOs in recent years have successfully gotten a seat at the decision-making table. In this webinar, we’ll take a look at how they’ve achieved that shift.

 

What struggles have CIOs overcome to make themselves into front-office leaders? How can you best grow your own role from IT enabler to that of an innovator and business ally? How do you ensure leaders on the business side continue to consult you at every turn as their needs grow and change?

 

Our panel will outline the skills and strategies it takes for CIOs and other technology leaders to become an indispensable part of the budget and decision-making process. We’ll talk about how to earn a place at the table – and how to optimize your role once you’re there. We’ll also discuss smart ways CIOs can leverage private-sector partners to demonstrate value and aid in the shift to the board room.
