You've Been Heard: The Complexity Of Simplicity W/Antonio Marin - 414 (50:04)
You've Been Heard, Monday, April 6th, 2026
Antonio Marin is a two-time CIO of the Year who's overseen 25+ acquisitions and delivered $100M+ in measurable business impact. But his biggest insight came from the help desk: technology is just a tool.
"Technology is something that we do. It's a tool in our toolbox. But reality, what we're doing in an organization is business outcomes." When business leaders come to him 80% of the time saying "I need this technology," Antonio flips the conversation to "What are you trying to accomplish?"
We get into his "complexity of simplicity" philosophy, why data lakes aren't always the answer, and how his Business Enterprise Solution Team (BEST) bridges the gap between IT and operations. Plus his brutal hiring honesty and why he promises to "make new mistakes."
The payoff? Antonio's teams have won CIO 100 awards, converted 24-location acquisitions over weekends, and created technology that hospitals love because it's invisible to them.
