“The client likes blondes” and more from IDC Program Director Margaret Adam

Margaret Adam, Program Director for International Data Corporation’s European Channels & Alliances programme, speaks to Enterprise Management 360 about the differences between European and US markets, her advice for today’s CIOs and partner executives, her experience as a woman in the technology industry, and much more.

“The most impressive CIOs are those who are willing and able to be change agents within their organisations. They understand that digital transformation is as much, if not more, about cultural change and adopting new ways of working than it is about implementing new technology.”
