Responsibilities of the CIO
CIO must take responsibility of transforming business digitally and accountability lies with everyone in the organization starting from top to lowest level in the organizational hierarchy. All must contribute. Digital Transformation is not possible without creating a digital culture and going through a journey of successful implementation of initiatives. To change the culture CIO needs to play the role of ‘Chief Influence Officer’ and for execution excellence and adoption, need to play the role of a ‘change agent’.
Key priorities for 2021
Most of the organizations were embarking on digital transformation journeys prior to pandemic as well; however, they were at different maturity levels. This has accelerated the efforts. Many consider even making one process or activity digitize is also digital, but this is a misconception and at the most can be considered ’Doing Digital’. Now the focus is on transforming business digitally wherein end-to-end processes in fully integrated way are digitalized. Creating new revenue streams and business models is the mandate and for that organizational culture and mindset is to change and this is in true sense can be called ‘Being Digital’.
Adopting Work-From Anywhere
So called ‘New Normal’ is ‘Normal’ going forward. Hybrid model is going to be there wherein you will work-from-office and work-from-anywhere however percentages may vary role and industry wise. Technological changes were given and will continue to evolve; information and cyber security has taken front seat. Last but not the least, shifts in HR processes and policies must be in sync with new realities of workspaces.
Redesigning IT & Security strategy
The threats and risks were there from decades but were restricted to the organizational boundaries. Now with the speed and scale of emerging technologies and their consumption at mass level, the threats and their corresponding risks have increased manifold. IT infrastructure modernization, usage of right skills, deployment of best-in-class security solutions and putting in place governance framework to hunt, detect, respond, and mitigate these challenges is the way forward.
