Courageous CIO's Share Best Practices for Succeeding in the Digital Age at HMG Strategy's 2017 Washington, D.C. CIO Executive Leadership Summit

"Because digital represents unchartered territory, there's often a leadership void regarding which C-level executive will direct digital strategies," said Hunter Muller, HMG Strategy's President & CEO.
