CIO Confidence Index

Launched in the spring of 2021, the CIO Confidence Index is a monthly pulse survey of U.S.-based CIOs on their perspective of the economy and how policies and current events are affecting their companies and strategies. Every month, StrategicCIO360 asks thousands of CIOs the same three questions regarding their confidence in the current business conditions, future business conditions and their revenue and investment forecast for the year ahead. Supplementing those three questions are questions on current events, as they pertain to strategy and operations.

Participation in the poll is reserved exclusively for CIOs and IT executives, at companies across all sectors and sizes.

The survey fields mid-month and only remains open for 48 hours, thus making for a very timely assessment of sentiment. The data is compiled and analyzed to establish trends and calculate the Index’s weighted averages. The results are then released on StrateficCIO360.com, with exclusive comments and insights from hundreds of participating CIOs. Unless otherwise explicitly agreed upon by the respondent, all responses are kept confidential to allow participants to share their perspective in a respectful, truthful, unbiased and collegial setting.
