Over time, CIOs will need to develop and mature operating models that balance professional and citizen developers within LCNC platform providers. The CIO will continue to be the guardian of technology, but he must also lead, steward and co-innovate others, including his developers, to deliver on the promise of innovation at scale. This change requires new operating models designed to support co-innovation, enhance personal productivity, govern access to data through the LCNC platform, and be underpinned by robust governance and security.
