2023: A Seminal Year for CIOs and Technology Leaders

Working with technology, you are certainly familiar with “first-mover advantage.” Well, professionally and personally, this is what 2023 is presenting to CIOs and technology leaders worldwide! So many trends that we have watched for years are coalescing – the digitization of business processes, the criticality of digital leadership within our organizations, and the governance imperative to brief the C-suite and the board of directors regarding an organization’s state of digital readiness — as we confront an unsettled economy that is driving yet another major iteration of new information technology imperatives.

Join us as we explore both the leadership and technology landscapes, and provide useful operational guidance for seizing the opportunities for maturing our cloud capabilities, data management, and C-suite participation; and the rising challenges before us including the talent gaps, the never-ending security gaps, and the disconnected technology initiatives across many of our organizations.   

Harris' Restaurant - The San Francisco Steakhouse

In 1984, Ann Lee Harris opened what has become San Francisco’s classic American steakhouse. Her vision was to create an atmosphere of traditional elegance and charm for San Franciscans and visitors alike to experience a time gone by. Renovating what was once Grison’s Steakhouse at 2100 Van ness at the corner of Pacific Avenue, she created a lush atmosphere with dark wood, high ceilings with brass chandeliers and large leather booths.

Since opening almost forty years ago, Chef (and now owner) Michael Buhagiar has been on the line. Starting out as a morning cook with founder, Mrs. Harris, Michael became executive chef in 1991, part owner after Mrs. Harris’ passing in 2003, and now he and his two sons, Marc and David, are responsible for keeping the original vision alive; providing the Bay Area with the best dry-aged steaks in an atmosphere of traditional elegance and charm. Exceptional steak and gracious service will forever be in style.
