The CIO Agenda: What You Need to Know | Sadin on Digital

Cloud Wars Live with Bob Evans

The Big Themes:

• Cloud repatriation: Techies and investors are buzzing about a recent articlethat seems to argue, “start in the cloud, then move back in-house.”
• BoD and CIO/CISO gap: Most CIOs/CISOs have limited BoD interaction, and most board directors know far too little about technology. They need to talk!
• Last week I became a NACD ‘Certified Director’: After lots of study and a grueling exam! So BoDs are on my mind more than usual.
• Pat Fitzgerald about hiring and retaining workers: Shakespeare, “Glendower: I can call the spirits from the vasty deep.” “Hotspur: Why, so can I, or so can anyone – but will they come when you call them?”

The Big Quotes:

“And right now there is not a single restaurant that doesn't have a help wanted sign the size of their window.”

“Now it's 2021. Ransomware is in the news. Cybersecurity is in the news. Digital transformation is in the news I contend.”
