CIO Summit of America Summary -
The CIO Summit of America drew 200+ IT Leaders and Business Visionaries.
According to Dr. Howard Rubin, Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and
other senior IT leaders have an unprecedented opportunity to leverage
existing information technology investments to lower their
organization’s overall operating expenses. Organizations that employ an optimal mix of technology investments to
grow and protect their revenues and to reduce and avoid costs at a
managed level of risk, can outperform their peers by 3%-to-5% of pretax
profit margins, says Rubin. <read more>

Learn from world-class thought leaders such as Keynote Speaker Dr. Howard Rubin. His research in technology economics revealed that typical executive-suite reflexive behaviors, which reduce IT spending in times of revenue stress, actually inhibits business/economic recovery. On June 8th, Dr. Rubin reveals more of his findings including that in times of poor company, country and global economic performance that "IT Does Matter - IT Matters Now". The nation's infrastructure is no longer just highways/harbors, roads/rail and airports/aerospace. It is tech-heavy, encompassing broadband, technology innovation, technology investment, and technology talent development. If used properly, IT can be the ultimate lever to help achieve positive company and country economic performance.

Discuss with top search executives from Russell Reynolds, Spencer Stuart, Korn/Ferry and Heidrick & Struggles what the Chairman, CEO, COO or CFO is looking for in a CIO. What’s on their top 10 list? Our panel of senior executive recruiters will share the directives they hear from their clients and how it applies to you. Building your personal brand is a key element of career success. What does it mean, how is it developed and what do you need to do to have an outstanding personal brand? Attend to learn how your personal brand can have a significant impact on your career.
