The best-performing CIOs focus on strategy rather than operations and align IT goals with business objectives.<\/p>\n<p>These CIOs also report higher productivity, innovation and customer satisfaction in their organizations.<\/p>\n<p><em>\"The survey clearly shows that CIOs in Germany are also reorienting themselves - away from a pure technology focus to a business perspective that focuses on business goals. This paradigm shift leads to more innovation, performance and ultimately success, from which everyone in the company benefits.\"<\/em><\/p>\n<p>explains Detlef Krause, Area Vice President Germany at Service Now.<\/p>\n<p>German CIOs have increasingly strong relationships with other members of senior management, particularly the COO, CFO and Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO).<\/p>\n<p>Most of the CIOs surveyed from Germany agree that building partnerships and cross-team projects at decision-maker level is an important task.<\/p>\n<p>64 percent of German CIOs agree that their job is to educate other members of management about digital technologies.<\/p>\n<p>Seventy-two percent of CIOs also say their core responsibilities include collaborating with the CHRO on talent strategies.From a technology perspective, successful CIOs are implementing measures to automate and integrate work processes and adopt digital workflows to drive business success.<\/p>\n<p>They also establish a company-wide consensus on the use of these technologies. In Germany, the majority of CIOs recognize the importance of digital workflows for increasing efficiency (79 percent), productivity (83 percent) and innovation<br \/>\n(72 percent).<\/p>\n<p><em>\"As technology becomes more critical to business success, expectations of the CIO have risen.
