The concept of technical debt has proven an elusive concept, though the importance of it is as paramount as financial leverage. Tech debt leverage, if properly managed, can significantly assist CIOs and tech leaders in effectively communicating and prioritizing their digital transformation activities within an organization. As companies become more digital, they need to actively measure and manage their technical debt leverage the same way they do their financial debt leverage.

Tech debt leverage enables tech debt to become another lever that can be pulled to help meet strategic goals while the prioritization of efforts to pay tech debt interest is consciously addressed by the executive team. By proactively measuring and managing it and establishing a common business language with which to contain that measurement, CIOs can elevate the discussion of tech debt within their organization.
