How do the CEO, CIO and CFO work together to deal with challenges facing their organization? This report compares the findings from "three separate C-suite studies to identify where C-level executives agree – or, equally importantly, diverge – and how CFOs and CIOs help CEOs prepare for the future."
In this report, we focus particularly on the combined insights from our three most recent C-suite studies. Our research shows that although CEOs, CFOs and CIOs all recognize they are operating in a new economic era, their opinions differ substantially about which external forces have the greatest impact. CEOs are both more concerned about technological factors and more convinced of the need for change than CFOs and CIOs, for example. There are also significant differences between the attitudes and actions of business leaders in the most successful organizations and those in less successful organizations.
