Host Gregg Garrett and guest Todd Loiselle, CIO of National Food Group, sit down to discuss blurring the bridge between technology and market value. Todd shares his “Top 3”: Mary McLive, his first grade teacher who taught him to be empathetic and how to activate his super power; Tony Williams, his former colleague at PwC, who taught him how to be a man with a life and career; former CIO of Mastronardi and Colony Hardware, Michael Pellegrino, who taught him that fear mongering was not necessary to be a CIO and that he needed to network; and Executive Strategic Coach Rick Collison, who taught him to shift his perspective. And you have to hear what Todd says about vision boarding.
