CIOhio Keynotes Speak of a New Era of Innovation-Driven Business Management

This year's CIOhio, held on November 6 and hosted by TechColumbus, featured industry thought-leading keynote speakers and compelling track sessions that provided opportunities for interactive dialogue on topics ranging from cloud computing to off-shore outsourcing. The full-day conference was headlined by 3 high-profile speakers, all with diverse backgrounds and areas of expertise: Gary Hamel, acclaimed author, speaker and business thought leader; Steve Steinour, Chairman, President and CEO of Huntington Bancshares Inc. and Huntington National Bank; and Gerry McNamara, Managing Partner with Heidrick & Struggles.

Their subjects and presentations varied greatly. Yet one constant theme woven throughout each speaker’s message was that innovation – either through new products, technology, delivery of services or management techniques – will be the driver of how well individuals and organizations will be able to compete in this information-based global environment.
