Becoming the Best You Can Be with David Henderson - CIO mentor and coach

Not even in the full form ‘Chief Information Officer’. No ‘T’ and no ‘Technology’ either. The job title is not ‘Chief Information Technology Officer’.

So why is there so much focus in CIO media channels on technology?

A mentor should not be a mentee's boss or in his/her direct reporting line.

Context is everything.

This question directs us to look for answers in the wrong places.

The CIO has primary accountability for Information Leadership.

This question does not make sense but unfortunately, too many senior non-IT executives still ask it and (perhaps masochistically) many CIOs inflict the question and answer upon themselves.
