The DNA of the CIO provides fresh insight into what it is to be a Chief Information Officer (CIO) today and is based on our survey of 301 IT professionals from 13 countries within EMEIA, Americas and AsiaPac. It also draws on in-depth interviews with a further 25 CIOs from these regions. A further 40 respondents from across the rest of the C-suite were polled to provide a perspective on how the CIO is perceived by the rest of the executive management team.
