Looking for CIO sources for feature on resilience

Bill Doerrfeld | November 1, 2024

Story in progress: How resilient CIOs are future-proofing to avoid risks


In light of recent incidents like CrowdStrike and the growing threat landscape, resilience has never been more crucial. For a feature for CIO.com, I’m exploring how CIOs are preparing to face these challenges head-on by addressing technical debt, strengthening risk management postures, modernizing legacy systems, and utilizing emerging technologies.


I want to learn what actions are most effective, the value they bring, and how CIOs are communicating these imperatives to senior leadership to secure investment.


I'm collecting input from CIOs with relevant insights to share. This opportunity is specifically for folks with 'CIO' in their title, or closely related positions. If you are a PR rep and see a fit, feel free to share the opportunity with your clients or colleagues. For efficiency's sake, I'm only collecting written responses in this form (no interviews).


The deadline for submission is Friday, 11/15/24, 5 pm PST.
