Desir Group Executive Search

One of the most dynamic and ever-evolving business sectors in our country today is healthcare information technology (HIT). Furthermore, the role of the HIT executive overseeing these dramatic shifts in technology and business is also changing. Leaders in this specialty must be strategic – focusing on creating value through technology – and tactical, with the ultimate goal of running an efficient IT shop.

The IT Executive is now responsible for leading business transformation and process change, overseeing bio-medical technology and in some cases, providing oversight for service delivery and even head of supply chain. In fact, in some organizations, the role of the technology executive is divided between two people: Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and Chief Technology Officers (CTOs).

At The Desir Group, we understand the changing role of the technology executive. In response to that change, we have assembled a team of seasoned professionals to oversee our Healthcare Information Technology Search Practice.

Our HIT Practice Managers are industry-recognized leaders with proven track records in managing highly complex and demanding HIT organizations. They understand the need to rigorously evaluate each candidate on his/her ability to demonstrate a core set of attributes essential to the success of a 21st century healthcare technology executive.

Our commitment is to provide our clients with qualified candidates that can address disparities in the following disciplines:

Chief Information Officer (CIO)
Chief Technology Officer (CTO)
Chief Medical Information Officer (CMIO)
Director of IS Computer Operations, IS Security, IS Application Delivery & Support, IT Project Management, Networks and Connectivity, etc.

IT has become an enabler, a differentiator and a tool that introduces innovation into the organization. Those individuals entrusted with its oversight must be more then technologists. They must also possess the business acumen needed to articulate IT’s value to senior leaders and poised enough to facilitate the changes required in an organization to maximize its value.
