You Never Want to be a Dilbert Cartoon

“Wayne Sadin on Digital Strategy” episodes will explore the
fast-changing and high-stakes world of digital business. We’ll
focus on what CEOs and boards must do to lead their companies
successfully into the Digital Age. Today, we talk about the
relationship between boards and the C-suite, and the most
important questions to ask an incoming CIO.





Episode 5


In this episode: Wayne and I discuss Wayne’s favorite subject:
technical debt. Wayne, who has served as CIO, CTO, and CDO,
laments the fact that most boards talk to their CIO maybe four
times a year (not enough). He shares the first question he would
ask, as a member of the board, to an incoming CIO (and what he’d
want the answer to be). Plus, Wayne and Bob explore why IT shops
tend to have an overabundance of technicians who want to turn the
knobs and play with the dials, but not enough “human factors”
people. Watch for all this and more, and to find out what Wayne
means when he says that he never wants to be a Dilbert cartoon.
