RSSCIO’s Positive about the future
Information Week is carrying a piece with the results of a survey/study conducted by Forrester of 115 CIO's in North America. Summary of the results:
CIOs in the 4th qtr of 2006 were more confident about the future than they were in the third quarter, After remaining steady for most of 2006, expectations for a stronger future business climate grew, with 91% of CIOs polled saying they expect improved conditions three quarters from now. Fifty-seven percent expect "much better" conditions.
How confident a CIO feels seems to be directly related to the size of his or her company. Forrester's report shows that 73% of CIOs from companies with 5,000 or more employees expect much better business conditions, while only 42% from companies with 500 to 4,999 employees felt the same way.
Study Details:
The study surveyed 115 CIOs at North American companies. Thirty-four percent of those surveyed were from companies with 1,000 to 4,999 employees and 36% were from companies with 5,000 to 19,999 employees.
