BECAUSE OF THIS, CIOS MAY FIND THEMSELVES BEING PUSHED OUT OF EXECUTIVE DECISION-MAKING ROLES IN FAVOR OF BUSINESS SAVVY CFOS OR PROCESS ORIENTED COOS (CHIEF OPERATING OFFICERS).
IRONICALLY, THE OPPOSITE SHOULD BE TRUE. AS INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY BECOMES INCREASINGLY PERVASIVE IN ORGANIZATIONS, SO TOO SHOULD IT STRATEGY BECOME MORE CLOSELY INTEGRATED WITH OVERALL BUSINESS STRATEGY. IT IS IN FACILITATING THIS CLOSENESS THAT CIOS MUST SHINE. THEY MUST COMMUNICATE THE UNIQUE VALUE THAT THEY CAN BRING TO THE TABLE AS THE PRIMARY SUPPORTERS OF ALIGNMENT BETWEEN BUSINESS AND IT.
