The Current State
Colleague Success Management is even more critical in today’s world as behaviors and expectations change with the introduction of every new website or mobile function. CIOs who embrace Colleague Success Management will be able to advance their capabilities and leadership skills, creating a positive impact with their colleagues across business functions.
The Agent of Change
As per Gartner, at least 84% of top CIOs have responsibility for business areas outside traditional IT. This is not the CIO of the past, viewed primarily as the decision-maker for all conventional, back-office infrastructure management.
The focus of the CIOs has evolved from infrastructure and networks to delivering business outcomes. The CIOs are no longer providing a support function but now need to bring a strong digital POV to their business colleagues and service them as their customers! As a result, the CIO may get an A in several cases on infrastructure (network availability, security compliance, and mobile device availability) but get a much lower grade when it comes to delivering business outcomes!
Bottom Line
Colleague Success Management often bridges the communication gap between the CIO’s office and the other C-Suite executives. It ensures that their investments in digital architecture are tied closely to the desired business outcomes desired by their business colleagues. Download our whitepaper now to learn more!
