English term or phrase: leaves you breathing their exhaust
So does the rise of the CMO threaten CIOs? The answer is an unsatisfying maybe. CIOs could face all sorts of problems, from security and privacy issues to turf wars.

Explanation:
"让贵企业望尘莫及" is a perfect equivalent for "leaves you breathing their exhaust" itself. But to make it more of business writting in the Chinese text, I would suggest to use something like 发展迅速,很快超过您的企业. The former expression might be a little bit "overstating" if we put it back in the context.
