¿Preocupa de verdad la geopolítica a los CIO?
En los últimos años, la soberanía digital se ha convertido en un término de moda, tanto que ha dado el salto desde el universo específico de la tecnología a los medios de información generalista o al análisis geopolítico. La clave que explica este salto está en las tensiones globales crecientes, que han llevado a que […]
Scaling AI at Union Pacific starts with people
As AI moves from experimentation to scale, many organizations are discovering a hard truth. Despite heavy investment in technology and models, impact often falls short of expectations and the constraint isn’t the technology itself but the operating model, culture, and the workforce required to turn potential into performance. It takes a certain range of skills […]
The real cost of manual access — and why CIOs are paying attention
In my nearly two decades as an identity practitioner — including leading identity programs at global financial institutions and serving as a CISO — I’ve seen a recurring pattern that quietly erodes enterprise velocity. I call it “Monday morning friction.” The symptoms often look mundane, but they are systemically expensive: The project stall: A cloud […]
CIOs are caught between employee AI fatigue and leadership expectations
In 2024, when cloud-based software company BlackLine implemented its Buckie AI agent, a knowledge base that employees could ask HR- or IT-related questions, the company didn’t expect to move away from the tool within a year. “The technology was moving so fast,” CIO Sumit Johar says, and the company needed a different system to scale […]
“AI 투자, ROI 없이도 간다”…기업 현장에 벌어진 ‘성과 괴리’ 현실

ITの非効率は見えないコストをもたらしている——多くの企業が見逃す巨額の損失
AIヘルプデスクプロバイダーAteraが実施した調査によれば、ヘルプデスクの遅延をはじめとするITの非効率によって、多くの企業が年間数百万ドルの損失を被っている。社員やITリーダーの多くが、こうした問題によって毎週数時間を失っているという。 調査では、社員の3分の2以上が業務時間の少なくとも10%を、プロセスのナビゲート、問題の再登録、技術的トラブルの解決といった「メタワーク（本来の仕事ではない間接作業）」に費やしていることが判明した。また約3分の2の社員が、システムの停止によって1日に少なくとも10分を失っており、多くの場合その損失は社員1人あたり週100ドル以上にのぼる。規模が大きくなるほど、損失は急速に拡大する。 ITリーダーも例外ではない。約4分の3が、アクセス障害、システムの遅延、承認の遅れ、ITの対応遅延などにより、週平均1時間以上を失っていると回答した。AteraのCEO兼共同創業者のGil Pekelman氏によれば、ヘルプデスクへの問い合わせ後、社員が業務に戻れるまでには平均3.5時間かかるという。チケットを開いてから担当者が対応するまでの時間、解決にかかる時間、そして別の作業に切り替えてから元の業務に戻るまでの「スイッチングコスト」が重なるためだ。 見えないコスト——財務部門が気づいていない損失 IT専門家は「この数字は控えめかもしれない」と指摘する。アプリセキュリティプロバイダーBlack Duck SoftwareのシニアディレクターCollin Hogue-Spears氏は、多くの大企業がITの摩擦による生産性損失として200人以上分に相当するコストを抱えているが、単一の予算書には現れないと言う。 「この調査の数字は、私がエンタープライズ環境で目にするものと一致している。問題は摩擦が存在することではなく、財務チームがそれを直視する機会すら与えられていないことだ」とHogue-Spears氏は言う。「CFOが四半期ごとに人員数を見直しながら、ITの摩擦コストを一度も確認したことがないとすれば、実態のない損失に資金を垂れ流しているだけだ。ITの摩擦は単なるコストではない。帳簿に載らない隠れた人件費だ」。 Hogue-Spears氏は、デジタル体験の測定ツールを導入し、四半期ごとにレビューを実施することを推奨する。「ITの摩擦はある程度避けられない。コンプライアンス要件やマルチクラウド環境がそれをさらに複雑にする。「優れたCIOは摩擦を最小化する。なくすことはできないが、減らすことはできる。デジタル体験が優れた組織はそうでない組織より生産性の損失が明らかに少ない。そのギャップこそ、リーダーシップの差だ」。 「ゼロ摩擦のIT」という幻想 コンサルティング会社contracoのCEO、Frank Meltke氏は「摩擦がまったくないITは幻想だ」と言う。強固なセキュリティプロトコルやコンプライアンス要件は、ある程度のメタワークを生む。「ITリーダーの目標はすべての摩擦をなくすことではない。存在するプロセスが組織を守るために機能していることを確認することだ」。 問題は中小企業（SMB）で特に深刻だとMeltke氏は指摘する。今回の調査は1000人以上の企業を対象としているが、小規模な組織では、さらに大きな問題が見えるかもしれない。「大企業の社員がヘルプデスクのチケットで45分待つとすれば、SMBの社員はそれと同じかそれ以上の時間を自力で問題を解決しようとして失う」。 中小企業には、多数の安価な単機能アプリを組み合わせるのではなく、少数の高機能で信頼性の高いツールに絞ることを勧める。 AIは救世主になれるか AIを活用したヘルプデスクサービスが、対応速度を高め、社員を早期に業務に戻す助けになるという声もある。Meltke氏によれば、AIはガバナンス関連の摩擦には対応できないが、ヘルプデスクの一部機能は自動化できる。 「自動化されたヘルプデスクツールは、パスワードリセット、アクセス申請、既知のエラーパターンなどの定型的な一次対応を人間のキューより速く処理する。大量のルーティンチケットを処理する組織にとっては、実際に測定可能な効果がある」。 AteraのPekelman氏も、AIを活用したヘルプデスクサービスが対応時間を数時間から数分に短縮できると言う。また、優秀なIT人材の不足という課題にも対処できるという。「市場で優秀なIT人材は非常に少ない。しかしAIを活用することで、会社にとって非常に重要なプロジェクトに集中できるようになる」。

Stopping power: The leadership skill that separates modern IT leaders
Most portfolios don’t lack initiatives. They lack stopping power. Once funding is approved and a program is publicly endorsed, the system favors continued support over learning, even when evidence weakens.

Cloudflare’s new CMS is not a WordPress killer, it’s a WordPress alternative
Cloudflare on Wednesday rolled out EmDash, which it described as “the spiritual successor to WordPress.” The security vendor positioned EmDash as a far more secure site building tool that avoids the extensive cybersecurity problems with WordPress plugins. But the Cloudflare claims go far beyond cybersecurity issues. The vendor is arguing that the very nature of […]

Bad CIOs are good for the business
By any conventional measure, a bad CIO is a liability. Missed transformation milestones, spiralling cloud costs, unresolved cyber risks and restless business stakeholders are familiar symptoms.

And yet, when viewed through a longer strategic lens, poorly performing CIOs […]
How analytics and AI are reshaping the boundaries of IT leadership

ITの価値をどう伝えるか——世界のCIOが実践する5つのヒント
もはやテクノロジーなしに事業は動かない。それは誰もが知っている。それでもITがコストセンターと見られてしまうのはなぜか。理由の1つに、CIOがその価値をうまく伝えられていないと言えるのではないか。 「今日のCIOは1つのプレッシャーを感じている。テクノロジー投資の価値を、どうステークホルダーに伝えるか、だ」——GartnerのディスティングイッシュドVPアナリスト兼チーフリサーチオフィサー、Chris Howard氏は最近の投稿でこう指摘する。「CIOがITの価値をどう測り、どう伝えるか——それがITをビジネスのパートナーと見るか、コストセンターと見るかを決める」。 Schneider ElectricのCIO（北米担当）、Bobby Cain氏はこう言う。「ITの価値を発信することに徹底的にこだわる、これはデジタルリーダーの基本だと思っている。ビジネスとテクノロジーが融合する今、ITを利益の推進力として明確に位置づけることは我々CIOの責任だ」。 ではITの価値を効果的に伝えるために、CIOたちはどのようなアプローチを実践しているのか、以下に5つをみていこう。 ITのポジティブな影響を習慣的に発信するITが提供する価値は明かだ。だからわざわざ宣伝しなくてもいい——そう思うべきではない。「価値が何かを言葉にしなければ、伝わらない」と、MITスローン経営大学院シニアレクチャラー、George Westerman氏は言う。人々はテクノロジーを電気のように当たり前のものとして扱い、問題が起きたときだけITに目を向ける。「多くの経営幹部はITの不満しか経験しない。発信しなければ、印象はネガティブなものだけになる」。 この発信は新任のうちから始めるのが理想だ。「就任直後が最も効果的で、期待値を設定できる。まだ発信していないなら、『不満の声があることは承知している。一部は事実だが、そうでないものもある。改善に向けた計画はこのようになっている』と切り出せばいい」とWesterman氏は言う。 ITの指標ではなく、ビジネスへの影響で語る技術的な専門用語ではなく、ビジネスの言葉で話す——ITリーダーは長年そう言われてきた。だが現実にはビジネスの言葉で話せないCIOが多い。 「CIOは往々にして、レイテンシーや帯域幅など、取締役会プレゼンではなくシステムレベルの技術指標に目を向ける」とInfo-Tech Research GroupのBrian Jackson氏は言う。技術施策がどうビジネス価値を生むかを理解し、言葉にする力が求められる。 Cain氏はこう語る。「CIOがテクノロジー投資がいかにリスクを低減し、生産性を高め、顧客価値を創出するかを語らなければ、ITはマージンドライバーとして見られることはない。売上貢献、生産性向上、顧客体験、コスト回避——すべてのテクノロジー投資はP&L（損益計算書）にトレースできなければならない」 ビジネスステークホルダーが重視するKPIを使う2025年のDeloitte Tech Exec Surveyでは、テクノロジーリーダーの36%が「テクノロジーの価値をビジネス用語で測定・伝達すること」を最優先課題に挙げている。「これは重要なことだ。常に意識し続けなければならない」とDeloitteのLou DiLorenzo氏は言う。 ROIは必ずしも最適な指標ではない。インフラプロジェクトは損益センターから遠く、計算が難しい。それでもCIOは、各ステークホルダーが重視する指標を特定できる。人事向けなら新システムが選考プロセスをどう効率化したか、営業向けなら新データプラットフォームが成約率をどう高めたか——そうした形で示すことが求められている。 ストーリーテリングの力を磨く正確な情報を提示するだけでは不十分だ。伝え方も重要だ。BarracudaのCIO、Siroui Mushegian氏はこう言う。「相手にとって何がメリットか、どの課題が軽減されるかという形で成果を説明する。金額や時間の節約、無駄の削減といった指標に結びつけると説得力が増す」。 このスキルを磨くには、定期的なITカウンシルの開催、少人数への定期プレゼン、ビジネス用語の習慣化といった取り組みが有効だ。 DiLorenzo氏は、現場の担当者や中間管理職と積極的に関わっているCIOほど、効果的なストーリーを作りやすいとDiLorenzo氏は言う。「『担当者が日々直面している課題を取り上げ、それをIT側がどう解決したか』という話ができる。それは技術サービスの話ではなく、業務現場に根ざしたストーリーだ」。 コスト削減ではなく、利益の観点で語る「CIOは今もコストの話をしすぎている。コストセンターと見られたくないなら、コストの文脈で語ってはいけない。ITへの投資は『資産の構築』として語るべきだ」——FICOのCIO兼チーフカスタマーオフィサー、Mike Trkay氏はそう言う。 同じコインの裏表を見る発想の転換だとTrkay氏は言う。コスト削減の報告ではなく、得られた成果を示す。「インフラのモダナイゼーションにより、顧客オンボーディング時間を40%短縮した」という形だ。そのためには、すべてのITイニシアティブに期待されるビジネス成果を最初から設定しておくことが重要だという。 Wolters KluwerのCIO、Mark Sherwood氏も同じ見方をする。「コスト削減の話は古い。重要なのは、ITが売上成長をどう後押ししているかだ。効率化や最適化をやめるわけではないが、ITをバリューセンターとして示すことが不可欠だ」。 マルチクラウド戦略が稼働率と耐障害性を高め、顧客維持率の改善につながる——そうした点と点をつなぐストーリーを語ることが、ITをバリューセンターとして示す近道だと話した。
