I am very excited to see this chart, pointing out the Infrastructure, ERP/SCM/CRM and Consulting are forecast for above average growth! As reinforced in my consulting practice, we are seeing tremendous interest in those focus areas. The growth can be attributed to technology innovations like DLT, EDGE, Distributed Storage, Hyper-Scale NAS, AI-enable Cyber Security, GenAI/Analytics, etc. All these and others are attracting spending in order to drive growth and profitability. And consulting practices are asked for advice about what choices to make and how to implement them. A rising tide lifts all boats. #ceo #cfo #cio #transformation #AI #Infrastructure #Cyber #Data #hyperscaleNAS #distributedstorage

In my conversations with CXOs at world's largest organisations, effective implementation of #AI driven business efficiency drivers are always at the top of the agenda. It is not surprising that new figures from IDC project that worldwide spending on technology to support AI strategies will reach $337 billion in 2025 — and more than 2x to $749 billion by 2028:  You can read more details in CIO Online: https://lnkd.in/ezDDaf9Q The right strategy starts with the right data, and from that, you can find the right insights to create a compliant and business resilient approach. #AI #Technology #Innovation #FutureOfAI #PublicSector #DigitalTransformation

Thanks to Konverge AI for the opportunity to review and provide feedback to your e-book on "Generative AI for Executives". The guide provided a good overview of the principles of GenAI along with practical implementation best practices that technology leaders can benefit from. I particularly liked the emphasis on the “User Journey Map” when productionalizing GenAI and facilitating user adoption. Nice job!    #GenAI #AI #GenAIBestPractices #LLM #data #ArtificialIntelligence #bigdata #datascience

The High Costs of Chief Revenue Officer Turnover Harvard Business Review explores the importance of CRO retention and the impact that turnover has on an organization. From HBR: The average tenure of today’s chief revenue officer (CRO) is among the shortest in the C-suite, averaging just 25 months. "A staggering 62% of companies see their revenue growth rate decline or remain flat in the fiscal year following a CRO change." They further explore the long-tail impact of CRO turnover, including: 1) Erosion of customer trust, 2) Strategy 'whiplash', and 3) Investor skepticism. https://lnkd.in/eC6m4p-f #CRO #revenueleadership #leadership #retention #successionplanning
