The Savvy CIO Podcast Series Starts July 22

“The Savvy CIO” is a new podcast series for IT leaders that will start making episodes available next week. The program centers on the decisions that IT executives handle as they manage technology modernization and day-to-day service expectations.

The series is hosted by former CIO Bradd Busick and is sponsored by Park Place Technologies. Season One includes 10 episodes and lists guests and analysts, including IBM, Coca-Cola Bottlers, Datum, Omdia, Solved, and IDC. Topics listed for Season One include AI readiness, liquid cooling, and managing with static budgets.

Busick serves as Principal, AI, Data & Technology Enablement at Frazier Healthcare Partners, and previously served as CIO at MultiCare Health System. The podcast description also includes that Busick was recognized as Washington State Healthcare CIO of the year in 2024 and National Healthcare CIO of the Year at the ORBIE Awards in 2024.

Season One’s podcast format includes “10 episodes” with conversations between experienced IT leaders and analysts. Busick said, “In the old days, the CIO used to keep the lights on. Now the CIO decides which lights are worth keeping,” and added, “This podcast features some of the top thought leaders in the world, where we don’t just talk about technology, we talk about leverage, speed and where the organization is ‘lying to itself’ about its IT capabilities.” Larry DeAngelis said, “We realized many of the conversations being had focused entirely on the aspirational side of modernization and did not actively address the ever-increasing hurdles CIOs face.”

The Savvy CIO will be available for download beginning July 22 on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music.
