Technology executives have seen a significant increase in their compensation since 2021, with median pay rising by 45.4% to $2.6 million. This surge in pay for tech leaders, particularly Chief Technology Officers (CTOs), outpaced the gains of other C-suite roles like Chief Operating Officers (COOs), Chief Financial Officers (CFOs), and Chief Information Officers (CIOs).
