Think T: President’s UN Keynote to CIOs
Polytechnic Institute of NYU’s expertise in information technology management went global at the 20th Annual Information and Communications Technology for Sustainable Economic, Business and Social Development Conference held at the United Nations July 10 - 11.
President Jerry M. Hultin said in his keynote address that to compete in today’s global economy, successful Chief Information Officers need to have “T-shaped” skill sets, meaning that they need to have deep knowledge of IT (the vertical axis of the T) as well as a broad perspective (the horizontal axis) of their company’s business mission and the society in which the company operates.
