Digital disruption has put the CIO in the middle of industry transformation like never before. Today, in addition to the role of a leader and innovator, CIOs are expected to help line leaders drive their digital transformation strategy.  

IT leaders are now expected to play a more significant role in managing consulting and outsourcing partnerships, contingent workforce, and employees. They must be stewards of excellence in outsourcing and talent management, and always with an eye toward the budget.

The Challenge

To balance quality, speed, and cost of delivery outcomes, the IT organization, has a new set of challenges.‍
 

Skills and Capabilities

Skills and Capabilities IT leaders must assess their organization’s talent needs for cutting edge applications as well as legacy systems, for today and into the future. In an increasingly competitive hiring market, they need visibility into market cost and quality, and to understand the implications of sourcing these roles from every available channel.
