CONCEPT The last few years have seen an overload of marketing hype promoting the need to implement an “intelligent and agile enterprise” – challenging the CXOs of the world’s leading enterprises to implement a new vision of process innovation and optimization.
Demanding and confusing issues such as compliance, service delivery, customer experience, wireless, outsourcing and globalisation mean this is the most complex time to helm a top corporation:
The CIO must deliver ROI and IT-powered business growth in the face of converging technologies;
While C-level management as a whole must take their company to the next level in the face of change and competition.
It is also a time of great opportunity – because the potential for IT to add real business value has never been greater.
Every CIO knows this, but the strategic bosses in Asia’s Top 3000 companies still need convincing – they are cautious because early technologies such as ERP and CRM, and the dot.com bubble, cost a fortune with little ROI. This has soured some technology spend.
CXO focuses on the issues uppermost in the minds of CXOs striving to align technology with business strategy. These include identifying new and existing technologies, cost reduction, minimizing IT risks, and maximizing return on investment.
CXO brings together a range of voices with shared visions to demonstrate the importance of aligning a strategy that considers business needs and the role of IT in developing a company’s services. |
