ABSTRACT
The purpose of our panel is to understand:
issues that Chief Information Officers (CIOs) are currently facing or expect to be facing in the next few (e.g., 3-5) years with regard to managing people responsible for information systems and technology; e.g., issues could include such traditional human resource (HR) issues as recruiting, retention, and development in light of contemporary phenomena, such as Big Data, Cloud Computing, Mobile Computing, and Enterprise Social Networking or other HR issues, such as job/work design, stress, outsourcing, managing a diverse workforce, or managing change
how CIOs have addressed, are addressing, or expect to address those issues through
practices that have demonstrated or are demonstrating success,
practices that they expect to be successful, or
challenges that they have experienced (including obstacles or practices that have not worked so well) and what they have done to address those challenges
