Gartner Executive Program Survey Of More Than 2,000 CIOs Shows Digital Technologies Are Top Priorities In 2013

"CIOs knew that doing the right thing required tending to IT by delivering cost-effective quality services. CIOs and IT leaders managed cost, complexity and risk to enable business operations in a world of managed stability," Mr. McDonald said. "However, the world outside IT changed creating a quiet crisis for IT. Demands have increased in a world grown dynamic and digital. The harder CIOs work tended to current concerns, the less relevant IT became. CIOs know that the future rests in not repeating the past but in extending IT by hunting and harvesting in a digital world."

More-detailed analysis on the CIO agenda for 2013 will be presented in two webinars. During these webinars, Mr. McDonald and Mr. Aron will outline the results from the 2013 CIO agenda survey and the top business and technology priorities for CIOs. The "Agenda 2013 — Implications for High-Tech Providers" webinar will be hosted on February 5 at 11 a.m. EST.
