​​Career Paths

Communications

Communication is critical to a CIO’s success.  You must have a multi-dimensional plan that incorporates communication to the Board of Directors, the CEO, C-Suite peers, your direct reports and your entire staff.  Each communication path is unique and requires a different approach.  PFR Advisory has implemented creative communication vehicles across the spectrum of interested parties in global environments.

Mergers and Acquisitions

Whether you are responsible for technology diligence, integration planning or driving a strategic acquisition, we’ve been there and can provide advice that is based on real experiences.  We know the key questions to ask and have developed playbooks for all aspects of the M&A process.  M&A activity is strategic but fraught with risk.  The stakes are high and you can rely on PFR Advisory to help you maximize your investments.

Organizational Design

We live in a complex, global business environment and CIOs must deal with organizations that are decentralized by mergers, acquisitions, outsourcing, and offshoring.  PFR Advisory has experience in all aspects of organizational design.  We can help a new CIO assess his or her organizational structure and develop an optimal design that empowers employees while developing business partners to maximize organizational effectiveness.

Strategic Planning

Are your IT initiatives aligned to your overall business strategy?  Do you have an opportunity to drive business strategy with technology?  PFR Advisory has a framework for strategic planning that links IT strategies to overall business goals, drives these strategies into specific initiatives with measureable goals.  We have also developed a one page strategic plan that simplifies communication to senior executives.  The entire IT organization also rallies around the one page strategy
