Partner Perspective: “Savvy CIOs Pick Up on ‘Digital Signals’”

Sure, outstanding CIOs can give great insights on what it takes to excel in the role, but those who deal with different health system CIOs on a regular basis also come to discern what separates the everyday from the exemplary. One such individual is MangoApps Co-Founder & CTO Vishwa Malhotra, who does just that. Having interacted with a number of CIOs as prospects and customers, he has sharp insights into what it takes to be successful. It starts with appreciating that the role is about not just using technology to solve technology problems, but also business problems. To do that, CIOs must go beyond taking requirements from users and finding a solution. They must dig deeper, to truly understand the business problems at the core of any issue. After that, it’s a question of getting buy in by building cross-functional teams including everyone who will be touched by the solution. In this Partner Perspective interview with healthsystemCIO Founder & Editor-in-Chief Anthony Guerra, Malhotra covers these issues and many others.
