Business Transformation and the CIO Role
Regular readers may recall we recently released our most-downloaded resource, a whitepaper written about research conducted by Harvard Business Review Analytic Services called, "Business Transformation and the CIO Role," about how CIOs should be leading technology-driven business innovation in their organizations.
We also released an easy-to-read infographic called "The 6 behaviors of CIOs at companies out-innovating you." It highlights the stats high performing CIOs have in common as well as some of the hurdles they are trying to overcome.
During each week in April we took a deeper dive into each of the 6 behaviors outlined in the study.
- New Harvard Business Review research finds innovation starts at the top
- How taking a structured approach to innovation can lead to more ideas
- Business leaders want their CIOs to drive business strategy
- Make everyone a thought leader
- Is your IT department a cost center or business game changer?
- CIOs who invest in and reward innovation stay ahead of the competition
DevOps Roundtable Series
We also published a five part DevOps Roundtable series, where we sat down with five top CIOs and asked them pointed questions about what is creating demand for DevOps, what is the role of the cloud and what are some tips for making DevOps a reality.
- Part 1: What's creating demand for DevOps?
- Part 2: The role of the cloud
- Part 3: Tips for making DevOps a reality
- Part 4: Suprises born out of DevOps
- Part 5: Measuring success in a DevOps culture
A big thank you goes out to Pete Buonora, Lee Congdon, Tom Soderstrom, Merv Tarde and Rajesh Wannava for taking part in our Roundtable series. Next month, you can look forward to our "Magic Wand" Roundtable series.
New Enterprisers
In addition to our daily articles, we also added several new Enterprisers along with minute-long video interviews and Q&As so they could share some of the ways they are changing the way the CIO works and the way they can be valued within the enterprise.
- William T. Mayo, Senior Director of IT, Development & Delivery, Biogen Idec
- Alan Pawlak, Aetna (BIO forthcoming)
- Sanjob Sahoo, TradeMONSTER (BIO forthcoming)
Thanks to everyone who has helped to build our Enterprisers community. We are really looking forward to see what happens next!
