What To Do Next

Offset potential: High Separate from the core score. This estimates how much demand, redesign room, and transition support could cushion pressure.

Chief information officer/Chief technology officer/Chief security officer still has credible offset paths. Demand persists, adjacent moves look viable, and enough of the work appears reorganizable around AI.

Demand support: Medium Transition support: Medium Reallocation room: High Switching friction: High
