CEO Directives: Top 5 Initiatives For IT Leaders
CIO, March 21st, 2023
As organizations change course with economic gyrations, collaboration between IT and business becomes priority No. 1 for CEOs.
CIO Talvis Love has weathered a tsunami of rapid and significant changes at Baxter International over the past year - with little reprieve in sight.
In late 2021, the med tech company completed the $12.4 billion acquisition of Hillrom, the largest in its history, to expand the company's digital health and connected care offerings. While Love and his 3,500-person IT team were working on that integration, the company announced in January 2023 plans to spin off its acute care and renal units, which is about a third of the business. One month later, Baxter began changing its operating model and restructuring the remaining company.
