CIO Recruiting: A Tech Leader Perspective – Guest: Tarun Inuganti, Cosultant, at Spencer Stuart and Bask Iyer, CIO and CDTO of VMware

If CIOs are going to be held accountable for revenue goals, they need more say in the products their company offers and the skills needed to propel the company forward. Despite a talent gap, forward-thinking CIOs take a broad view when it comes to recruiting, offering current staffers more appealing career paths and helping to reinvent what it means to enable the new workforce. They also recognize the culture changes most important to IT professionals: to become more innovative, to increase partnerships within the business, and to collaborate more, both with their own staffers and the business lines they work with. Clearly, these are key ingredients for success and your new recruiting charter.
