Featuring Atticus Tysen, CIO, CISO of Intuit

From an initial dream of being a doctor to interning with NASA to eventually landing in the C-Suite at Intuit, Atticus Tysen (LinkedIn) has traveled a long and winding road. As the CIO of Intuit, which makes products such as QuickBooks and TurboTax, and brings in more than $5 billion per year in revenue, Atticus has a lot of responsibilities on his plate. IT, he says, is the Achilles heel of an organization and being in charge of IT for a company as large as Intuit means there are many challenges but just as many exciting innovations and success stories.  On this episode of IT Visionaries, Atticus discusses all of that and more, and he digs deep into how the processes and products Intuit creates ultimately always comes down to what is best for the customer.  Best Advice: “Really be curious about the business your company is in and deeply understand that.” Salesforce and MIT recently teamed up to create a whitepaper exploring what happens when AI meets CRM.

Customer Empathy, Innovation and more with Intuit CIO Atticus Tysen

399: Intuit CIO Atticus Tysen describes how the company is looking to use data to give insights back to its small business owners and self-employed individuals regarding how their businesses are doing, as well as how the company can give consumers insight into their finances and help individuals file their taxes with more confidence using artificial intelligence and machine learning. While many believe that big data will only benefit large corporations, Atticus provides examples of how big data can help the little guy, whether he be a small business owner or a self-employed individual. We also discuss Atticus’ advice to CIOs looking to become more product-focused, Atticus’ take on AI and conversational user experiences, the evolution of TurboTax Live, and a variety of other topics.
