Why C-Suite Executives Have Lost Confidence in IT
A recent study by CIO.com revealed a significant decline in C-suite confidence in IT departments. In 2013, 64% of CEOs had confidence in their IT teams to deliver basic services, but that number dropped to only 36% in 2024.
This decline suggests that IT teams are perceived as less capable of delivering essential functions, highlighting the need for a more business-centric approach to IT.
