A broad vision, a refined set of priorities, and the right tools to steer their organization into the future.<\/p>\n Traditionally, CIOs have been regarded as \u201ctrusted operators,\u201d whose primary duties include managing operational excellence and increasing the scale and complexity of back-end technology.<\/p>\n According to Deloitte\u2019s latest Global CIO Survey<\/a> report, 55% of CIOs still identify as trusted operators. While the importance of maintaining IT operational efficiency remains, organizations are looking to CIOs to become business partners.<\/p>\n In fact, the IDC predicts<\/a> that by 2020, 80% of IT executive leadership will be compensated based on their ability to drive key business KPIs, not IT operational measures.<\/strong><\/p>\nThe age of digital presents CIOs with a unique opportunity<\/h2>\n
