Advisory Board members guiding the direction of the local InspireCIO network.
Rachel Lockett CIO l Pohlad Companies | CIO What challenges do you hope to solve this year? t ll
The InspireCIO network is the destination for CIOs across the country. Our local Twin Cities chapter is led by some of the brightest technology minds in the state representing prominent companies across a wide range of industries including healthcare, government, agriculture, and manufacturing. These leaders set the direction for events, membership, and the annual ORBIE Awards program – more than that, they collaborate to tackle pressing challenges for their collective organizations. We asked each of the Advisory Board members to provide their take on key challenges, upcoming priorities, and what’s on their “to-do list.”
I hope to make progress in developing the next level of technology leaders across our organization, building a deeper bench of resources ready to step up and fill leadership roles and also increasing the diversity of backgrounds, thoughts and perspective in the technology leadership level. , l i r i t
