So you still want to be a CIO? The economy continues to be bad, your retirement fund is worth about half of what it was last year, and your CEO is talking to the board about cutting staff. How are you going to reduce spending on technology? Hmmm who has the biggest salary in the IT division? Could it be you? What do you really do all daygo to meetings, go to conventions? Maybe you spend some time thinking about which title is betterCIO or CTO (trust me on this oneCTO is much better because it goes great with that 1964 Ronny and the Daytonas song, G.T.O.). Maybe you spend a lot of time thinking about whether getting that 7 series Beamer or the S Class Benz might be sending the wrong message upstairs. Well, get off your butt and get out in the trenches its the technology, stupidthats what theyre paying you for. Lets see if we can school you in some technology that just might save your um job.
