Welcome to the new series of the inspir'em newsletter

In this series we are doing a deep dive into different roles within the C-Suite  - what they do and what challenges they face, how they are measured and how to secure that all important meeting. 

We kick off the series with the CIO - the Chief Information Officer. 

inspir'em Sales and Leader Members can watch our full-length interview with Laura in your membership "webinars" area. We will also be hosting a live webinar with Laura this coming Friday, 6 September, 9:30 AM.

New blog: A life in the day of a CIO

We spoke with Laura Meyer, ex-CIO of HarperCollins to tell you everything you need to know about a Chief Information Officer (CIO) and, importantly, how to get in their diary.

What your CIO is reading:

• World Economic Forum: 5 ways technology is impacting our lives right now
• Forbes: Rebalancing cybersecurity for the future
• Harvard Business Review: Boards need a new approach to technology
