Technovation With Peter High

1047: What does it take to lead tech—and the enterprise—in 2026? In this episode of Technovation, we feature a panel from our October 2025 Metis Strategy Summit where Steven Norton speaks with three top executive recruiters: Craig Stephenson (Korn Ferry), Jamey Cummings (JM Search), and Scott Robbin (Heidrick & Struggles). Throughout the conversation, each recruiter gives their perspective on the evolving mandate of the CIO. The conversation covers: The convergence of data, security, digital, and operations under the CIO How talent strategy and succession planning are changing What makes a technology leader board-ready The rise (and ambiguity) of the Chief AI Officer Offshore workforce trends and leadership development
