Guest: John Hughes John Hughes, Founder, GrowthWave. Join us as we talk about hope for both CEO's and CIO's. Here's quote from the interview:"I want CEO's to know that they can have hope and that they can get the value out of IT and reap the benefits 10X over. I want CIO's to know they don't have to live their careers in fear. I want them to understand there is a way for them to be and feel successful" as leaders in their organizations.

John has been an IT leader for more than twenty years and has passionately focused on helping technology organizations make a greater impact on business results. At GrowthWave, John advises CEOs how to get the greatest results from their IT organizations, provides Interim CIO talent, and coaches CIOs to become business leaders within IT. John says, “IT organizations that know how to put the business first become significant contributors to business success.”
GrowthWave was born out of John’s desire to provide CEOs the help they need to build effective IT organizationn and to coach CIO's how to become significant contributors to business growth and profitability.
