Gartner Expert

Neha Kumar

Sr Director, Advisory

I am a Senior Director in Gartner's CIO and AI Leaders research group. I advise tech leaders globally on how to demonstrate business value from their digital transformation and AI initiatives.

Many of the topics that I provide guidance on include the IT operating model, product management, leadership effectiveness of CIO and their team, culture change and IT talent strategy. I also help clients develop and present their IT or AI strategy to the board and effectively demonstrate its business value.

I really enjoy facilitating leadership discussions and presenting keynotes as well as other executive sessions at our conferences and Symposium events.
