On the Right Stack

Said Toro has spent 26 years leading enterprise strategy and digital transformation across manufacturing, healthcare, financial services, and private equity. In this episode of On the Right Stack, he and host Jason Cohen examine how the CIO role has moved from the back office to the boardroom, and why business fluency now matters more than technical depth. The conversation covers speaking the language of EBITDA and exit readiness, why cybersecurity is a business problem rather than an IT one, cutting through the noise around AI, and a practical framework for a CIO's first 100 days.
