Chief Information Officer is valuable commodity. Just recently we have received a few requests to help identify or “Head hunt” a suitable candidate.
After discussing with the clients we have learned that motives in these organisations were different.
One organisation and its CEO has a firm belief that their ERP system needs to be replaced and that the organization needs a new CIO to make that happen.
The other wants to have CIO that not only runs after the latest and greatest in IT but has also the sence for ROI, costs, strategy and internal controls in IT.
It seems like the CEOs of these organisations have realised that the future potential for value creation sits in the intangible resources of these organisations – key people and information technology.
The question remains what have their existing CIOs done wrong or what they did not do? How could a CIO ensure he/she is doing the right thing? How could a CIO be a true value creator for an organisation?
