Data in 2016Top 7 CIO’s Concerns

The Society for Information Management polled 785 organizations to find out for its 2016 IT Trends Study

1. Alignment of IT with the Business

Alignment remains a persistent issue due to the

changing nature of business and the difficulty

that the IT organization has in responding to these

changes

2. Security and Privacy

Nearly one-third (32%) of survey respondents

selected security/privacy as a top IT management

issue for 2016. Security/privacy has been

moving into the top 5 ranking last year

3. Speed of IT Delivery and Time-to-Market

IT time-to-market “can significantly impact an organization’s revenue, market share, customer

acquisition and retention, employee satisfaction and

loyalty, brand image, profit margins, and more,”

the study stresses

4. Innovation

“When successfully achieved, innovation has

the ability to achieve both revenue growth and cost

reduction. In fact, innovation can help with

just about all of the IT management issues.”

5. Business Productivity and Efficiency

“Productivity & Efficiency relative importance has

dropped a bit over the last four years,” perhaps as

organizations begin concentrating on other issues, or simply that

“doing more with less.”

6. IT Value Proposition to the Business

IT leaders not only consider themselves to be

technology leaders, but also recognize the

significant role they play in the achievement of

organization goals

7. IT Agility and Flexibility

IT leaders reaffirms the desire by many

organizations to achieve strategic and

organizational IT benefits; while also improving IT

operations
