TOP PRIORITIES: AI, CYBERSECURITY, AND MAXIMIZING BUDGET 

The topics front and center this year for C-level executives are similar to those reported last year
These concern leaders the most: 

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

INFO- AND CYBERSECURITY

While AI takes center stage for most, information and cybersecurity remain a top concern for executives who have too many team vacancies.

BUDGET CONSTRAINTS

Balancing innovation with change management is like walking a tightrope at times. Executives feel their budgets stretched.

TALENT RETENTION

After budget worries, executives struggle with talent retention — an issue that raises costs and makes skill gaps worse.
