Last night, Tom Brady led his new team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, to a Super Bowl win, a second for the sports franchise and a seventh for him personally. Whether or not you cheered for Brady and the Bucs, the game was full of great moments to witness, including the 43-year-old quarterback connecting not once but twice with old friend, former New England Patriots teammate and tight end Rob Gronkowski to score touchdowns—a fabulous and record-breaking display of camaraderie and teamwork.

Indeed, that duo’s connection is being celebrated this morning, an example of what’s possible when two people sync to create a great outcome.

While it’s not quite the spectacle we saw on the Super Bowl gridiron, that’s what we seek to spotlight with the Forbes CxO platform: Through this newsletter, our CxO Nexus interview series, research, stories and more, we uncover the C-suite executives and ways of collaborating that drive success in a changed world.

Elsewhere at Forbes, a reminder that we are looking for CIOs (and other IT executives of equivalent seniority) who wish to be considered for our inaugural Forbes CIO Next list. This will highlight tech leaders who are reshaping the role in fresh and exciting ways, from creating innovative digital channels for connecting with customers to rethinking how companies’ software development teams operate. If you know someone who fits this bill, please contact Senior Editor Martin Giles at mgiles@forbes.com for information about nominating them for the list.

And don’t miss the latest CxO Nexus interview, a conversation with SAP, outgoing CMO Alicia Tillman and CIO Florian Roth, who talk about executive responsibility for growth and how alignment on goals is key.

Leadership & Strategy

If your business is considering adopting a hybrid work plan where employees can work from home or the office, consider these three steps. Number one: Define the options.
