This is a monthly all-Zoom opportunity for IT staff to hear directly from a CIO Council member and ask questions. Each month, a CIO Council member will present for up to 30 minutes, followed by a community Q&A. This is in response to the IT Community’s desire to hear more from top IT leaders outside of their own organization, and have opportunities to engage with them.
CIO Council Ask Me Anything
Lunchtime Lightning Talks
This is a monthly all-Zoom opportunity for three IT staff members to present lightning talks to their colleagues over the lunch hour. A brief community Q&A will follow each lightning talk. This series builds on the very popular lightning talks at the annual IT Unconference and extends opportunities throughout the year, offering a greater frequency both to hear from each other and to share out with each other in a broad forum.
Connect with Colleagues
Connect with Colleagues is an effort aimed at better connecting all of us across our IT teams and further a sense of belonging. The periodic campaign leverages the Donut app on Slack and – through random pairings of participants – encourages IT staff to set aside some time to invest in building a new relationship or furthering an existing one.
