Episode Description
The buzz: Innovation vs. operations. Innovation tops the agenda for many CEOs, while CIOs are focused on ensuring sound operations. With both agendas critical to your company’s survival and growth, is it possible to foster an innovation culture without compromising operational integrity? The experts speak. Dave Jordan, TCS: “The man who doesn’t know where he wants to go, shouldn’t be surprised when he ends up somewhere else” (Mark Twain). Marc Cecere, Forrester Research: “Nearly all CIOs want innovation, but most innovations occur as a byproduct of a project rather than as an end in themselves.” Svend Wittern, SAP: “Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do.” (Edgar Degas) Join us for Innovation vs. Operations: Can You Have It All?
