In addition to having a keen understanding of the changing marketplace and the ability to navigate and build strong relationships across the organization, transformational leaders lead by crafting strong business and technology visions and then figure out ways to achieve these. This unique combination of abilities permits these exceptional leaders to find and unlock value, which others miss, and unleash markedly improved business performance and even change the competitive landscape.

Transforming IS @ Boston Scientific

Location: Ballroom

Rich Adduci, Senior VP & CIO, Boston Scientific

Moderator: Mark Polansky, Senior Client Partner & Managing Director, IT Officers Practice, Korn/Ferry International

CIOs and CEOs alike want their information systems team to become a transformational force in their company, so why are IS departments seldom called upon when transformation is required? Over the past three years, Boston Scientific's Information Systems team has fundamentally changed the way the business views and engages their organization and the way Information Systems operates.

Join Rich Adduci for a review of the journey Boston Scientific's IS team has taken to shift from being the "Geek Squad" to becoming a vested partner with the business in transforming Boston Scientific.
