Summary
The Deloitte Tech Exec Survey reveals a significant evolution in the tech C-suite landscape, with over half of the organizations now employing four or more leaders in technology roles. This change calls for a strategic reevaluation of team structures to enhance collaboration and optimize tech-driven business initiatives. Key priorities identified by tech leaders include bolstering data and AI capabilities, designing secure technology solutions, and improving cyber resilience. However, a notable challenge remains: a talent shortage in GenAI skills, with 45% of respondents highlighting this as a critical need. To mitigate these gaps, organizations are increasingly establishing Global Capability Centers to improve operational efficiency. Despite the challenges, nearly 70% of tech leaders anticipate growth in their teams, driven by a belief that AI will complement human roles rather than replace them.
