Successfully navigate the changing face of the CIO role Strategic
Information Technology offers CIOs a handbook for engaging with the
senior management conversations surrounding strategy. The CIO role
is currently undergoing a massive transition from
technology-focused expert to a more strategic mindset, and this
book provides proven methods for taking your seat at the table.
Lessons from high-performing CIOs and a wealth of leading-edge
insight provide invaluable guidance for positioning technology as a
strategic driver across the business, while a focus on building the
necessary connections--for example, an alliance between IT and
HR--provide a multimodal approach to navigating the transition. The
evolution of the CIO's role involves more than simply technical
knowledge; the new CIO must be an influencer, an engager, and just
as adept at the soft skills that become increasingly crucial as you
climb the management ladder. It's about changing mindsets,
translating hard skills into strategic advantages, and
demonstrating IT's value to the strategic decision making process.
This book provides best practices, illustrative examples, and
up-to-date perspective for CIOs wanting to: Position IT as a
critical driver of overall strategy Build on functional expertise
with strategic insight Learn from the stories of successful
tech-to-strategy transformations Engage C-Suite peers in shaping
the strategic conversation Not long ago, the CIO occupied a unique
place in the C-Suite. Executive by title, CIOs have nevertheless
been seen as predominantly the "chief tech expert" with little
input into strategy, as IT has historically been regarded as a tool
rather than a source of competitive advantage. The truth is
becoming increasingly apparent, with companies around the world
turning to technology in order to gain a competitive edge, and CIOs
are beginning to claim their place in strategy discussions.
Strategic Information Technology offers much needed guidance for a
successful transformation.
