Subject: Updated links! NACD CIO Rona Bunn on the path to board membership

Technology is the business, and that means there’s a tremendous opportunity and need for CIO and CISO representation at the board level. While many technology executives aspire to board membership, it’s critical to understand what it takes to be effective in the role and what the commitment entails.

NACD CIO Rona Bunn, my latest guest on the Tech Whisperers podcast, says the path to a board seat boils down to three things: experience, exposure, and education. In a Q&A after the show, she shared her advice for CIOs and CISOs who aspire to be on boards as well as specific resources from NACD that will accelerate that journey.

Tune in as he unpacks all of these aspects of his leadership playbook.

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. Part four, which will be published later this month, explores the topic of storytelling and marketing IT’s value. 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.
