Subject: 3 IT execs unpack their research on digital success drivers

Over a trillion dollars was spent on digital transformation initiatives globally in 2021. Yet research shows 70% of digital initiatives fail. Why are these efforts failing at such a high rate, and how do we set our companies up for success?

All three of my guests on the latest episode of the podcast recently completed doctorate degrees and conducted research related to this very topic. In an extended Q&A after the show, Dr. John Hill, Dr. Susan Nakashima, and Dr. Michael Seals unpacked more of their research, focusing on the changing role of CIOs and the opportunity they have to lead, guide, and facilitate a new discussion at the C-suite table.

5 CxOs on Leading Change

For years leaders have been hammering home the point that the only constant is change. But you need only look back to the “good old days” of 2019 to realize that change is no longer constant; it’s accelerating, accumulating and becoming more complex all at the same time.

In a recent virtual roundtable, Irvin Bishop, Jr., of Black & Veatch, Dan Bruno of Duke Health Technology Solutions, Sankha Ghosh of AssuredPartners, Ashish Parmar of Tapestry, Chuck Watson of Essentia Health, and Susan Duff, senior facilitator of O&A’s Leading Change program, shared their leadership philosophies, experiences and playbooks for leading change initiatives.

Read on for their advice on leading change successfully amid ongoing and increasing complexity.
Learn how O&A’s Leading Change program develops effective change leaders.

This is part three of our CIO Roundtable Series. In part one, 7 CIOs discussed building a consultative IT culture. In part two, 5 CIOs shared advice on building a service-oriented IT culture. Our next roundtable will explore the topic of storytelling and marketing IT’s value.
