The CIO's first 100 days
Just like a new President moving into the White House, a new CIO has 100 days to get it right. The new CIO must figure out quickly what steps to take immediately in order to get consensus early. There is little time to waste. Here are some tips from Maurice Chenier, the former CIO for public works and government services in Canada. His guidance transcends borders, certainly applies to the private IT sector and is important for every CIO to remember:
- Develop an agenda
- Ensure that current assumptions are clear and valid
- Prepare a draft CIO/IT budget
He's got plenty of other tips, but the most important ones center on having a plan, not flying by the seat of one's pants and being sure that colleagues are involved.
