ConclusionWhat We Have Learned
• Regardless of the work environment, many CIOs face similar challenges.
• The Role of the CIO is constantly changing. Today, CIO’s are faced with increasingly higher expectations and more responsibility. A CIO must be many things to many people- Business strategist, technology innovator, change manager, project advocate, and budget watchdog.
• The CIO has gone from a small departmental role, to a key force in shaping and improving business processes.
