CTO Executive Search & CIO Recruitment
The CTO of the future must not only to be the smartest technologist in the room – but also the most adept at fostering relationships.
Technology is rapidly becoming a business’s operating system. It is changing companies from the inside out and inspiring tech executives to take on previously unheard-of challenges, ranging from technology expertise, to managing complex stakeholder relationships.
The standard for technology leadership has been reset by this new reality, which has compelled businesses to re-evaluate their current tech leadership and hasten the integration of the technology function into the rest of the company.
