Computer Weekly's UKtech50 event 2014

The Computer Weekly UKtech50 audience listens to Ian Cohen, CIO at Jardine Lloyd Thopmson discuss demystifying digital leadership.

The job of a good CIO, according to Cohen, is a bit like a painter. "Our job is fundamentally to get an organisation from where they are to where they need to be and then create the technology and capabilities to get there. The very best CIOs are a bit like a corporate Picasso, making an abstract IT capability very tangible and very visual,” he told Computer Weekly earlier this year.
