Abstract Deadline: April 23, 2021

How do cloud technologies alter IT budgets/responsibilities/performance metrics?

Will simply restoring IT budgets to pre-pandemic levels really help tech teams stressed to support remote work, modernize customer experiences and mitigate cyber threats?

How can companies simultaneously spur innovation while maintaining core operations in the facing of rapidly changing market forces?

Many companies will be in need of turnaround leadership. What are characteristics should boards seek when hiring such executives?

How should c-suite leaders direct strategy development, operational goal setting and financial expectations?

What investments in learning & development are most crucial for executives to endorse and support in the next year/five years/decade?
