What happens when you put revenue and technology under one executive leader? In this episode of Technovation, Peter High speaks with Drew Pinto, Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue and Technology Officer at Marriott International, a $26 billion hospitality leader approaching its 100-year anniversary. Pinto shares how Marriott is transforming technology from a support function into a strategic growth engine — tightly integrated with capital allocation, AI experimentation, and commercial outcomes. Key highlights include: Why Marriott merged revenue and IT under a single executive mandate How disciplined capital allocation is shaping AI investments The shift from “tech for tech's sake” to measurable business impact Why most “technology problems” are actually data problems How a new product operating model is breaking down silos 🎧 Listen to learn how modern CIOs can align IT strategy directly to top-line growth.

The Big Unlock · Aditya Bansod, CTO & Co-Founder, Luma Health In this episode, Aditya Bansod, CTO and Co-Founder of Luma Health, about why healthcare AI often underdelivers — and what leaders must do to turn promise into performance. Aditya argues that AI's challenge in healthcare isn't ambition, but execution. While new tools are emerging rapidly, most remain point solutions that fail to integrate into the complex workflows that move patients from scheduling to care delivery. True impact, he says, depends on orchestrating the “last mile” of healthcare, referrals, intake, documentation, and the countless operational handoffs that determine whether care actually happens. He shares how Luma approaches AI adoption with flexible guardrails, allowing health systems to calibrate automation based on confidence thresholds and maturity. The conversation also explores the rise of agentic AI, the tension between human-in-the-loop oversight and autonomy, and why CIOs are navigating a messy but necessary consolidation phase. Looking ahead, Aditya is optimistic that AI will transform patient access and engagement, only if it's deeply embedded into workflows, not layered on top of them. Take a listen.

Is AI just another tech bubble or the defining platform shift of this era? Duncan Davidson, Co-Founder and General Partner at Bullpen Capital, argues that the answer lies in one critical distinction: Is the technology being used for its core purpose? In this episode of Technoventure, Duncan draws on his experience across the PC boom, dot-com era, mobile, and now AI to explain why real adoption signals durability. He also explores why CIOs can't afford to sit out a boom, how AI agents may disrupt the SaaS model, and why history suggests productivity revolutions create more opportunity than they destroy. For technology leaders navigating board-level AI pressure, this conversation reframes the question from timing the bubble to strategically participating in the inflection. Key insights include: Why core-use adoption determines whether AI is hype or a true platform shift Why leaders must participate in tech booms rather than try to time the peak How to distinguish defensible AI innovation from fragile “wrapper” plays What historical signals indicate when a technology boom is nearing exhaustion

What does autonomous IT really look like when you move beyond the slideware and start wiring systems together in the real world? At Dynatrace Perform in Las Vegas, I sat down with Pablo Stern, EVP and GM of Technology Workflow Products at ServiceNow, to unpack exactly that. Pablo leads the teams focused on CIOs and CISOs, building the workflows and security products that sit at the heart of modern IT organizations. From service desks and command centers to risk and asset management, his remit is clear: enable AI to work for people, not the other way around. We began with ServiceNow's deepening multi-year partnership with Dynatrace. While the announcement made headlines, Pablo was quick to point out that the real story starts with customers. This collaboration is rooted in a shared goal of helping joint customers reduce outages, improve SLA adherence, and shrink mean time to resolution. The vision of autonomous IT operations is not about hype. It is about connecting observability data with deterministic workflows so that insight can evolve into coordinated, system-level action. Pablo walked me through the maturity curve he sees emerging. First came AI-powered insight, summarizing data and surfacing signals from noise. Then came task automation, drafting knowledge articles, paging teams, triggering predefined playbooks. The next step, and the one that excites him most, is orchestrated autonomy. That means stitching together skills, agents, and workflows into systems that can drive end-to-end outcomes. It is a journey measured in years, not months, and it depends as much on digitizing process and building trust as it does on technology. We also explored root cause analysis, still one of the biggest time drains in IT. By combining Dynatrace's AI-driven observability with ServiceNow's workflow engine, enterprises can automate forensic steps, correlate events faster, and shorten the time spent on major incident bridges where teams debate ownership. Even incremental improvements in accuracy can save hours when incidents strike. Trust, of course, remains central. Pablo was candid that full self-healing systems are still some distance away. What we will see first is relief automation, controlled failovers, scripted actions suggested by machines but approved by humans. Over time, as confidence grows and processes become fully digitized, the balance will shift. Beyond the technology, a consistent theme ran through our conversation. Outcomes have not changed. Enterprises still want higher availability, faster resolution, better employee experiences. What is changing is the how. ServiceNow is reimagining its platform to deliver those outcomes at a much higher standard, not through incremental tweaks, but through rethinking workflows for an AI-first world. From design partnerships with banks building pre-flight change checks, to internal teams acting as the toughest customers, this was a grounded, practical conversation about where autonomous operations are headed and what it will take to get there. If you are a CIO, CISO, or IT leader wondering how to move from theory to execution, this episode offers a clear-eyed look behind the curtain.

Brett Salakas and I have an energetic future focused conversation for you this episode as we talk about human-centred community and connection especially in learning and teaching. Brett opened our conversation by explaining the background artwork by Indigenous artist Melissa Barton, whilst sharing his experience of working on a program to adapt international standards for Australia at HP, linking the artwork that narrates HP's educational vision in Australia. Listen in as Brett shares his personal and professional journey, including his teaching experience and his role as an HP Education Ambassador. He described an artwork created by Indigenous artist Melissa Barton (that you can see is his screen background) that represents the Australian education system and HP's educational vision for Australia. We discus the different types of screen time and its impact on education that is very topical here across media and government policy makers. Brett emphasized the need to differentiate between productive and recreational screen time, highlighting the importance of using technology to enhance learning rather than simply entertain. We also touch on the evolving nature of education and the need to maintain focus on core values and purposes. Brett shared an example from Korea, known as the "wild geese," where students are sent abroad for education, highlighting the perceived quality of education in countries like Australia. We focus in on the Australian education system's values and the importance of focusing on clear educational goals rather than chasing trends or technology fads. Brett emphasized the need to understand the purpose of AI within education, framing it as a tool under the broader umbrella of cybernetics that serves human needs. We also discussed the future of learning environments, drawing parallels between ancient learning spaces and modern technology. We explored the concept of "campfire caves, mountaintops, and holodecks" as metaphors for different learning spaces, where it is essential that the importance of balancing technology with human-centered education is forefront. Brett's recent initiative, the Wattle Vision, involved gathering CIOs from 16 Australian universities to create a collective vision statement for the role of technology in higher education over the next 20 years. The vision focuses on creating relationship-rich environments and experiences for students, emphasizing a human-centered approach. Brett spent two years working with industry experts, including HP, Microsoft, Intel, and Adobe, to develop this vision and has now returned to execute the 13 action items outlined in the plan.

For the 109th episode of the CIO podcast hosted by Healthcare IT Today, we are joined by Ryan Thousand, CIO at Dahl Memorial Healthcare Association, to talk about fractional CIO work! We kick this episode off with Thousand sharing some examples of where he has had to right-size his approach to IT in rural health. Rural health is often brought up when discussing the disadvantages they have, so to flip that, we are discussing some of the advantages rural health IT leaders have over larger health systems. Next, we dive into Thousand’s experience as a fractional CIO leader for multiple organizations. Despite needing them, many critical access hospitals unfortunately don’t have a CIO. Thousand and I talk about what the fractional CIO work looks like for these hospitals that can’t get a full CIO.  Then we talk about the biggest challenges Thousand faces as an IT leader. Next, we take a look at the places where IT doesn’t scale while also having workforce shortages. We then debate how to deal with those challenges. Lastly, we conclude this episode with Thousand sharing his advice to other CIOs and aspiring CIOs out there. Here’s a look at the questions and topics we discuss in this episode: What are some examples of where you have to kind of right-size your approach to IT in rural health? What are some advantages that rural health IT leaders have over larger health systems? I’m sure many listeners are intrigued by fractional CIO work. What’s your experience like as a fractional CIO leader for multiple organizations? Many critical access hospitals don’t have a CIO, but really need one. How’s the fractional CIO work for a hospital that can’t get a full CIO? What’s one of your biggest challenges as an IT leader? Where are places where IT doesn’t scale, but you also may have workforce shortages? How do you deal with that challenge? What advice would you give to other CIOs or aspiring CIOs out there?

A primeira vez que Jorge Leitão Ramos entrou numa sala de cinema foi há 67 anos. No Monumental em Lisboa podiam sentar-se 2170 pessoas a ver o mesmo filme, à mesma hora, no mesmo local — que para o crítico de cinema do Expresso “parecia um palácio com aqueles vastos foyers de grandes lustres, mármores, esculturas e imensas carpetes.” Ele “queria estar ali, viver naquele lugar”. Agora que, de Braga a Tavira, se fecham multiplexes, conversamos com ele, para lembrar cinemas da Lisboa que já não existem, e com João Miguel Salvador para dar conta da realidade em que deixamos de ir ao cinema e passamos a receber o cinema em casa.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

OMB's new memo rescinds the Biden‑era requirements and shifts software and hardware security to an agency‑driven, risk‑based model. SBOMs and attestations move from “must” to “may.” That means CIOs and CISOs can tailor what they ask for from vendors, but they'll also carry the burden of proving those choices keep mission systems safe. We'll dig into what this change unlocks and where it could create blind spots with Jean‑Paul Bergeaux, Federal CTO at GuidePoint Security.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

PARTICIPE DO ENCONTRO VOCAÇÃO E LEGADO: https://r.vocemaisrico.com/beae6da387FAÇA SUA MATRÍCULA NO VIVER DE RENDA: https://r.vocemaisrico.com/4f41c8a7ecNa sociedade atual, que recompensa velocidade, conforto e resultado imediato, quase ninguém fala do que sustenta decisões certas, caráter firme e liderança real no longo prazo: virtude. E o mais curioso é que isso não é novidade — a Igreja, ao longo de séculos, já nos ensinava as virtudes cardeais como alicerce de uma vida reta e de uma liderança de verdade: prudência (decidir bem), justiça (dar a cada um o que é devido), fortaleza (suportar o difícil) e temperança (dominar os excessos).Antes mesmo disso, a filosofia clássica já apontava na mesma direção: de Aristóteles, com a ideia de virtude como hábito e formação do caráter, até os estoicos, que insistiam em autocontrole, coragem e clareza moral diante do caos do mundo.Mas como aplicar essas virtudes na prática — na vida real e dentro de uma empresa? Como elas fortalecem o caráter, refinam a disciplina, elevam a liderança e evitam que resultados de curto prazo destruam o que foi construído no longo prazo? E, afinal, o que muda quando um líder decide operar com prudência, justiça, fortaleza e temperança em vez de ego, impulso e vaidade?Para responder essas (e outras) perguntas, convidamos Guilherme Freire para o episódio 284 do podcast Os Sócios. Falamos sobre virtudes cardeais, formação de caráter, disciplina, liderança e como aplicar tudo isso na vida e nos negócios.Ele será transmitido nesta quinta-feira (19/02), às 12h, no canal Os Sócios Podcast.

At Davos this year, some of the biggest names in tech sent a clear signal. AI is no longer a novelty. It is no longer a proof-of-concept exercise. As Demis Hassabis of Google DeepMind suggested, AI will shape more meaningful work. And Satya Nadella of Microsoft was even more direct. AI only matters if it improves real outcomes for people. So what does that look like inside the enterprise? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Andrew Boyagi, Customer CTO at Atlassian, to unpack how the conversation has shifted from experimentation to execution. Developers, in many ways, are the perfect lens for understanding this moment. Over the last two decades, their role has expanded far beyond writing code. They now own products, infrastructure, operations, and business outcomes. AI is simply the next chapter in that evolution. Andrew argues that AI will not replace engineers. It will raise expectations. As intelligent tools absorb repetitive work, the real value moves up the stack. System design. Architectural thinking. Reviewing and refining AI-generated output and orchestrating solutions that solve genuine business problems. And through it all, humans remain firmly in the loop. We also explore what this means for leadership, why mindset is starting to matter more than technical skill alone, how organizations can avoid layering AI on top of broken processes. And why the companies pulling ahead are treating AI as a strategic discipline, not a feature upgrade. This is a conversation grounded in reality. It speaks to product leaders, CTOs, CIOs, and anyone asking a simple but powerful question. If we are investing in AI, what are we actually getting back? And before we close, we look ahead to Team '26 and the themes Andrew and his team are already working on.  If this year has been about proving value, what will the next chapter demand from enterprise leaders? As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Are you seeing proof of value in your organization yet, or are you still working through the pilot phase?

Tim Crawford and Isaac Sacolick, both former Chief Information Officers and world-class CIO advisors, join Michael Krigsman on CXOTalk episode 909 to break down why enterprise AI strategies are failing, what separates transformational CIOs from those who are drowning, and why earning your seat at the table matters more than ever in 2026.You'll discover:✅ Why Tim says both AI strategy AND IT execution are failing, and what CIOs are focused on instead of outcomes✅ The "three-legged race" framework: how CIO behavior, IT culture, and external perception must align for strategic credibility✅ Why most CIOs have only a "layperson's understanding" of their own business, and how that kills AI value✅ Tim's two swim lanes of AI success: invisible integration or robust training (there is no middle ground)✅ Why Isaac says AI is "reshaping" business but not yet "transforming" it, and the product management shift that changes everything✅ How to evaluate agentic AI: the human-in-the-loop vs. human-out-of-the-loop decision framework and why cybersecurity proves you can't wait✅ The shadow AI paradox: why the best CIOs encourage it (with guardrails) instead of shutting it down✅ The three skills every IT professional needs now: business acumen, critical thinking, and data literacy⏱️ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Cold open: "If you think you should have a seat at the table, you've failed"0:35 Why both AI strategy and IT execution are failing2:08 The productivity measurement problem with AI2:45 What CEOs and boards want from CIOs in 20264:28 Why CIOs don't truly understand their business6:54 Why organizations are stuck in AI pilot mode9:04 Tim's 2 swim lanes: invisible AI vs. training-wrapped AI11:23 Audience Q&A: Inside-out thinking vs. outside-in thinking14:34 The 3-legged race: earning your seat at the table17:09 Moving from AI efficiency to true business transformation20:03 The shift from project-oriented to product-oriented IT20:31 AI governance, CISO alignment, and data sensitivity27:15 Agentic AI: fully autonomous vs. human-in-the-loop34:46 Agentic AI strategy and the value equation (opportunity minus cost)38:46 Shadow AI: innovation source or security threat?43:00 Governance as culture, not a bolt-on46:00 The AI skills gap: business acumen, critical thinking, data skills, and curiosity49:46 Are survival-mode CIOs sabotaging their careers?52:15 What CIO greatness looks like in 2026

BONUS: Why Embedding Sales with Engineering in Stealth Mode Changed Everything for Snowflake In this episode, we talk about what it really takes to scale go-to-market from zero to billions. We interview Chris Degnan, a builder of one of the most iconic revenue engines in enterprise software at Snowflake. This conversation is grounded in the transformation described in his book Make It Snow—the journey from early-stage chaos to durable, aligned growth. Embedding Sales with Engineering While Still in Stealth "I don't expect you to sell anything for 2 years. What I really want you to do is get a ton of feedback and get customers to use the product so that when we come out of stealth mode, we have this world-class product."   Chris joined Snowflake when there were zero customers and the company was still in stealth mode. The counterintuitive move of embedding sales next to engineering so early wasn't about driving immediate revenue, it was about understanding product-market fit. Chris's job was to get customers to try the product, use it for free, and break it. And break it they did. This early feedback led to material changes in the product before general availability. The approach helped shape their ideal customer profile (ICP) and gave the engineering team real-world validation that shaped Snowflake's technical direction. In a world where startups are pressured to show revenue immediately, Snowflake's investors took the opposite approach: focus on building a product people cannot live without first. Why Sales and Marketing Alignment Is Existential "If we're not driving revenue, if the revenue is not growing, then how are we going to be successful? Revenue was king."   When Denise Persson joined as CMO, she shifted the conversation from marketing qualified leads (MQLs) to qualified meetings for the sales team. This simple reframe eliminated the typical friction between sales and marketing. Both leaders shared challenges openly and held each other accountable. When someone in either organization wasn't being respectful to the other team, they addressed it directly. Chris warns founders against creating artificial friction between sales and marketing: "A lot of founders who are engineers think that they want to create this friction between sales and marketing. And that's the opposite instinct you should have." The key insight is treating sales and marketing as a symbiotic system where revenue is the shared north star. Coaching Leaders Through Hypergrowth "If there's a problem in one of our organizations, if someone comes with a mentality that is not great for us, we're gonna give direct feedback to those people."   Chris and Denise maintained tight alignment at the top level of their organizations through four CEO transitions. Their partnership created a culture of accountability that cascaded through both teams. When either hired senior people who didn't fit the culture, they investigated and addressed it. The coaching approach wasn't about winning by authority—it was about maintaining partnership and shared accountability for results. This required unlearning traditional management approaches that pit departments against each other and instead fostering genuine collaboration. Cultural Behaviors That Scale (And Those That Don't) "We got dumb and lazy. We forgot about it. And then we decided, hey, we're gonna go get a little bit more fit, and figure out how to go get the new logos again."   Chris describes himself as a "velocity salesperson" with a hyper-focus on new customer acquisition. This focus worked brilliantly during Snowflake's growth phase—land customers, and the high net retention rate would drive expansion. However, as Snowflake prepared to go public, they took their foot off the gas on new logo acquisition, believing not all new logos were equal. This turned out to be a mistake. In his final year at Snowflake, working with CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy, they redesigned the sales team to reinvigorate the new logo acquisition machine. The lesson: the cultural behaviors that fuel early success must be consciously maintained and sometimes redesigned as you scale. Keeping the Message Narrow Before Going Platform "Eventually, I know you want to be a platform. But having a targeted market when you're initially launching the company, that people are spending money on, makes it easier for your sales team."   Snowflake intentionally positioned itself in the enterprise data warehousing market—a $10-12 billion annual market with 5,000-7,000 enterprise customers—rather than trying to sound "bigger" as a platform play. The strategic advantage was accessing existing budgets. When selling to large enterprises that go through annual planning processes, fitting into an existing budget means sales cycles of 3-6 months instead of 9-18 months. Yes, competition eventually tried to corner Snowflake as "just a cute data warehouse," but by then they had captured significant market share and could stretch their wings into the broader data cloud opportunity. Selling Consumption-Based Products to Fixed-Budget Buyers "Don't believe anything I say, try it."   One of Snowflake's hardest challenges was explaining their elastic, consumption-based architecture to procurement and legal teams accustomed to fixed budgets. In 2013-2015, many CIOs still believed data would stay in their data centers. Snowflake's model—where customers could spin up a thousand servers for 4 hours, load data, while analysts ran queries without performance impact—seemed impossible. Chris's approach was simple: set up proof of concepts and pilots. Let the technology speak for itself. The shift from fixed resources to elastic architecture required changing not just technology but entire mindsets about how data infrastructure could work.   About Chris Degnan Chris Degnan is a builder of one of the most iconic revenue engines in enterprise software. As the first sales hire at Snowflake, he helped scale the company from zero customers to billions in revenue. Chris co-authored Make It Snow: From Zero to Billions with Denise Persson, documenting their journey of building Snowflake's go-to-market organization.

FHIR-Native Architecture: Building Healthcare IT for True Interoperability As healthcare systems race to meet 21st Century Cures Act mandates, a critical question emerges: retrofit or rebuild? Mike O'Neill, CEO of MedicaSoft, explains why FHIR-native architecture delivers fundamentally different interoperability outcomes than legacy systems with API layers bolted on. This conversation cuts through vendor marketing to examine the structural, semantic, and operational advantages of building healthcare IT from the ground up on HL7 FHIR standards. O'Neill draws on extensive experience leading P&L, engineering, and operations across healthcare IT startups and public companies to explain what "FHIR-native" actually means in practice—and why it matters for CIOs evaluating vendor claims. Learn how purpose-built FHIR architecture eliminates middleware complexity, reduces integration costs, and enables real-time clinical data exchange that retrofitted systems struggle to deliver.

This week on Next in Media, I sat down with Matt Spiegel, EVP of Marketing Solutions Growth Strategies at TransUnion, to unpack one of the most pressing questions in advertising right now: what's actually changed since cookies started disappearing and privacy laws started piling up? And just as importantly, what hasn't changed? Matt brings a refreshingly practical perspective to the conversation, explaining how disconnected data infrastructure remains the biggest obstacle for most brands, even as everyone races to adopt AI-powered marketing. He breaks down why walled gardens still have an inherent advantage, how signal loss is forcing marketers to rethink their strategies, and why the industry's obsession with the "easy button" might be holding progress back.We also tackled some uncomfortable truths about where the industry is headed. Matt shared his thoughts on agentic advertising and whether bots will really replace media planners, the noisy MarTech landscape that's overwhelming CMOs, and why he believes the next economic downturn could trigger massive layoffs in marketing and advertising. Throughout our conversation, Matt emphasized that while the tools and technology are evolving rapidly, the fundamentals of good marketing haven't changed. It's about understanding your customers, connecting your data, and applying that intelligence at scale. This is a conversation for anyone trying to make sense of the chaos in modern marketing, wondering how to navigate identity resolution in a post-cookie world, or just trying to figure out which AI tools are actually worth the hype._______________________________________________________Key Highlights

The primary development centers on the shift toward smaller, task-specific AI models within enterprises and how this shift is primarily about transferring liability from AI vendors to operators. Dave Sobel notes that while narrower AI models are being marketed as safer and easier to govern, the reality is that they shift the burden of control, oversight, and risk directly onto the organizations deploying them. Hidden costs—particularly those related to data infrastructure, compliance, and ongoing governance—are substantial, often eclipsing the initial AI investment.Supporting data includes findings from a Salesforce survey indicating that CIOs allocate a median of 20% of their budgets to data and infrastructure management versus 5% to AI itself. Dave Sobel stresses that the real cost of an AI project can be significantly higher than client expectations, pointing out a 4:1 spending ratio between supporting infrastructure and the AI technology. This underscores the risk for MSPs who may fail to price in the operational and governance requirements appropriately, exposing themselves to financial and compliance liabilities.Adjacent stories address OpenAI's strategic expansion into advertising and direct consulting, marking a move from pure technology platform to direct competitor for services revenue. OpenAI is creating an Ads Integrity Team to manage advertiser verification and reduce scam risk but acknowledges the challenges of maintaining effective controls at scale. In parallel, OpenAI is embedding engineers within client operations—mirroring other internal AI initiatives such as those at Shield and Entegris—and reinforcing a market divide. MSPs who build such capabilities internally capture margin, while others face lasting margin compression as purchasers of external solutions.The implications for MSPs and IT leaders are direct. Success depends less on which AI model is selected and more on the provider's ability to establish rigorous governance, liability management, and ongoing operational control. The market is bifurcating: service providers who can build in-house AI platforms or attract strategic investment will retain efficiency as margin, while those relegated to purchasing third-party tools risk further erosion of profitability and competitive position. The decision to build or buy is becoming a business model risk, not just a procurement choice, and the opportunity to address it is narrowing.Three things to know today:00:00 Firms Shift to Task-Specific AI Models Amid Governance, Liability Concerns 04:35 OpenAI Launches Ads Integrity Team, Hires Hundreds as Services Push Begins08:34 MSP Market Splits as Integris, Shield Build Internal AI, Others Buy ToolsThis is the Business of Tech.   Supported by:  IT Service Provider University
