Prior to COVID-19, often when IT leaders made budget requests for tools and software (most that would eventually become mission critical during the massive upheaval), they were given little attention. It is no secret amongst IT leaders that in reality the person with the most influence gets what they need and the person describing the realities of a risk that feels the most foreign to the business tends to end up with the least! In 2021 however boards are listening, on the back of a raft of COVID-related business outcomes. So, with an open goal what should CIOs be fighting for? Many would argue the answer to this is clearing technical debt, as it has implications for operating budgets, security, maintenance, creating space for IT upskilling and of course protection against unforeseen events. Others would say that security is the top priority now, given the frequency of attacks seen during lockdown for example. Anything else is a benefit and will likely lead to removal of some tech debt in the process. So, should a CIO’s top priority be Cyber Security?

IDG’s 2020 Cloud Computing survey revealed that strategic cloud migration is a top CIO priority. However, IT leaders also report they’re facing challenges in public cloud adoption.

The current model of getting work done by leveraging technology as the tool and IT as the sole tool-enabler has run its course. Technology savviness and expertise are no longer professional specializations and are becoming basic requirements to get any work done in the business context. That leads to technology architecture and operations becoming democratized as opposed to being owned and controlled by a central IT function. This session looks at this trend and presents a holistic picture on how businesses can weave technology as an underpinning to the way work gets done going forward.
