5、ck to strategy work as companies solidify plans for the next phase of digital business,anchored on intelligence and fueled by data,analytics,and emerging AI technologies.While the majority(40%)of IT leaders surveyed are transformational CIOs,the characterization was down slightly from last year,at 4

6、5%.The number of respondents ascribing a strategic focus to their CIO role edged up slightly to 35%,compared to 32%last year.A quarter claimed the functional CIO mantle,pretty similar to the 2023 State of the CIO findings,at 23%.When asked which archetype most closely aligns with their current role,

7、37%of respondents cited transformational,34%functional,and 29%business strategist.Looking out at the one-to-three-year horizon,theres a clear shift underway:Almost half(49%)of IT leader respondents expect to play more of a strategic role with 36%anticipating a heavy emphasis on transformational resp

20、aligning IT initiatives with business goals,redesigning business processes,and modernizing infrastructure and applications.When asked what they are spending less time on today compared to last year,managing IT crises,negotiating with IT vendors,and cost control/expense management top the list.Lookin
