CONCLUSIONS

It is no surprise that CIOs from Retail and Leisure are seeing Customer Engagement as the main source of digital disruption. Digital innovation is creating a significant advantage for forward-looking companies that realize consumers are quickly coming to expect seamless, customer-centric, and fully integrated experiences as an industry standard. CIOs in these sectors said they were relatively more optimistic about their IT budgets increasing than the other sectors were. However, the Retail and Leisure executives were less likely than those in other sectors to say their digital strategy spans the entire enterprise. This is concerning since to be truly successful, Retail and Leisure companies need to be investing in fully integrated, “omni business” models that span not only across channels, but throughout the entire organization. Retail and Leisure CIOs need to ensure their investments are focused on enterprise-wide integration and solutions in the coming year.
