CIO Executive Leadership Summit 2023 - New Jersey | HMG Strategy | 18 May 2023 | The Madison Hotel, 1 Convent Road Morris Township

Inflationary pressures and other macro-economic challenges are creating headwinds for technology executives and fellow members of the C-suite to execute on and achieve strategic goals through 2023. The fast-changing socio-economic landscape is prompting technology executives to become more creative than ever and to draw upon authentic and inclusive leadership skills to inspire their teams.

Global economic challenges are creating unique opportunities for business technology executives to foster a collaborative culture, embrace fresh innovative approaches, and develop strong partnerships to leverage hot technologies such as AI, ChatGPT, cloud platforms and cyber technologies to securely move the needle for the business and win in tumultuous times.

Here are the four prevailing leadership and technology trends that HMG Strategy will be focusing on throughout its Series:

• Innovation & Invention to Spur Revenue Growth
• Fostering World-Class Collaboration and Teaming
• Harnessing Advanced Technology to Drive Cost Reduction
• Securing a Global Digital Agenda
