CIOs Must Mind Their Own Data Confidence Gap
CIO, Thursday, April 17th, 2025
CIOs and other C-level execs believe their orgs' data is primed for AI, but VPs closer to the IT pipelines see bad data being used to make key business decisions - a blind spot CIOs must rectify.
As far as many C-suite business and IT executives are concerned, their company data is in great shape, capable of fueling data-driven decision-making and delivering AI-powered solutions.
But the closer an IT leader is to that data, the less confidence they have in its quality, according to a recent survey from IT consulting firm Softserve, which found that nearly half of C-level execs at large enterprises, including C-level IT leaders, believe their organization's data is fully mature, while just 37% of director-level data and AI leaders see the same.
