Ep. 5 - Rachel Lockett - Stepping Up to the Plate: A CIO’s Playbook for Success

In this episode, Rachel Lockett, CIO of Pohlad Companies, and host Brad Sousa share an in-depth conversation about leadership, communication (and the communication gap that exists between business leaders and technology leaders), and the impact technology has on people. If you aspire to be, or currently serve as, a CIO you must understand your technology skill is not the greatest value you provide to the business. Your personal and professional development needs to shift to focus on leadership development. Rachel and Brad also address topics from Rachel’s new book, “The Technology Doesn’t Matter,” including how to prioritize people and process and still achieve IT business alignment every organization requires.
