Vancouver Chapter - The CIO Change Playbook: Leading the People Side of Technology Transformation

June 9, 2026 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM (PDT)

Description

This highly interactive session explores what CIOs must do to lead the people side of technology transformation, not just deliver it. Through peer discussion and practical exercises, participants will examine how to create clarity, engage their teams, and drive sustained adoption across complex IT environments. The session focuses on how change actually plays out in real moments, equipping CIOs with simple, actionable approaches they can apply immediately.

Key takeaways:

  1. Move beyond delivery to adoption

Clarify the role CIOs play in leading change to drive business outcomes, not just technology implementation

 

  1. Understand what’s really driving resistance

Explore how people experience change and why adoption breaks down in real IT environments

 

  1. Lead change in real moments

Apply practical approaches to create clarity, engage stakeholders, and maintain momentum through uncertainty

 

  1. Learn by doing with peers

A highly interactive session using discussion, peer exchange, and hands-on exercises to apply concepts to real transformation challenges
