Cloud Realities

The role of the CIO is changing, but so are many other CxO roles in the face of digital disruption.  If anything, this is likely to accelerate in the coming years.

This week, Dave, Sjoukje and Rob talk to Jed Griffiths, CDO, Microsoft UK, about why this role change is occurring, why its important that it is considered to be wider than the much discussed CIO role evolution and the three key things that modern leadership teams should be wrestling with today, in the face of accelerated transformational change.  Also, do 'Five trends for CIOs' from early in 2023 still resonate?

TLDR:

38:00 Spending more time on Starfield!

What is Cloud Realities?

Exploring both the practical realities and the exciting alternate realities that can be unleashed through cloud driven transformation and cloud native living and working.

Each episode, our hosts Dave, Sjoukje & Rob talk to Cloud leaders and practitioners to understand how previously untapped business value can be released, how to deal with the challenges and risks that come with bold ventures and how does human experience factor into all of this?

They cover Intelligent Industry, Customer Experience, Sustainability, AI, Data and Insight, Cyber, Cost, Leadership, Talent and, of course, Tech.

Together, Dave, Sjoukje & Rob have over 80 years of cloud and transformation experience and act as our guides though a new reality each week.
