This is a podcast episode titled, How can CIOs strike the right balance of employee choice and compliance?. The summary for this episode is:

Eric Christopher: CIOs today are tasked with big and somewhat competing challenges. On one hand, they need to drive innovation, efficiency and digital maturity, while also ensuring technology costs stay within reason and managing for risk and compliance. How can you achieve that elusive balance? Progressive CIOs are evolving their view of SaaS governance to adopt a concept we're calling" freedom within a framework." With this concept, employees have the freedom to choose the tools they want and need to be successful, while CIOs and IT organizations can ensure that those purchases are in compliance and don't introduce new risks. It's the best of both worlds. The key to making" freedom within a framework" possible is having complete visibility into what SaaS is used in your organization and making it easy for employees to find and use approved applications. By leveraging" freedom within a framework," CIOs can have it all; happy and empowered employees and compliance and control.
