SHARING
IS THE BEST
SOLUTION

CIONET, as a global community of technology and digital leaders, knows the power of systemic knowledge-sharing. 

Harnessing this power, provides a transfer of knowledge providing direction and decision support in a matter of minutes versus weeks or months.

 

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

A TRIBE consists of 10, local, non-competing companies of similar size and maturity.

Chatham House Rule creates a trusted environment for participants.

A TRIBE Master moderates and manages a TRIBE using CIONET’s proven methodology.

CIOs set and define the agenda nominating their internal SMEs to participate in a program cohorts called “Squads”.

During Squad sessions problem-solving is pursued, realized, recorded and reported using CIONET’s proprietary platform.

TRIBES are a
vendor-free zone.
