       Innovation & Influence  


Unconventional The digital era is volatile, complex, uncertain and ambiguous. Business leaders have to understand what it means within their organization, but much more importantly, they have to understand the external changing connected business environment as well as the emerging digital ecosystem. Digital leaders nowadays are expected to constantly propose new ideas and challenge the status quo. Sometimes organizations go stale and need the so-called "shot in the arm" of someone who can think differently, see things from the different angles; read between the lines, tell the fresh stories. An outlier’s story, should you listen to?

Inspiration The digital era upon us means the exponential growth of information, the increasing speed of change, continuous disruptions, and fierce competition. Digital transformation means to break down the past and lead toward the future with a quantum leap. However, many BoDs are undereducated about their role and responsibility while the business change is accelerated across global scope and the knowledge life cycle is shortened significantly.

Understanding Governance is by definition a framework of principles, practices and indeed ethics; separate, different and outside the setting and subsequent control of business strategies, budgets, outcomes and metrics. It’s about how well an organization is being run and if set upright, it should effectively oversee the achievement of the business vision, mission, and objectives.

Influence Digital transformation is an evolutionary journey which means a renewed understanding of the future of business-what’re the disruptive trends; how your organization catalyzes the progressive changes and how much better you can do to leverage creativity and lead a seamless transformation. Influence competency is based on the leadership substances such as vision and purpose with effective styles such as participation, coaching or delegation. In order to make profound influence, you must demonstrate high levels of cognitive intelligence and various skills (as following), and have strong ethics, responsibility, integrity, and empathy.

Insight Governance is to frame business management, it should orchestrate change, do it with trust and flexibility. It’s about how well an organization is being run and if set upright, it should effectively oversee the achievement of the business strategy. How to enforce organizational governance discipline depends on the nature, scale, and complexity of the organization, as well as understanding its risks and conducting. Governance is neither linear nor single dimensional nowadays, it should be understood via multidimensional lens and get enforced holistically.

The “Future of CIO” Blog has reached 3 million page views with about 7300+ blog posting in 59+ different categories of leadership, management, strategy, digitalization, change/talent, etc. The content richness is not for its own sake, but to convey the vision and share the wisdom. Blogging is not about writing, but about thinking; it’s not just about WHAT to say, but about WHY to say, and HOW to say it. It reflects the color and shade of your thought patterns, and it indicates the peaks and curves of your thinking waves. Unlike pure entertainment, quality and professional content takes time for digesting, contemplation and engaging, and therefore, it takes time to attract the "hungry minds" and the "deep souls." It’s the journey to amplify your voice, deepen your digital footprints, and match your way for human progression.
