High Publisher: Jossey-Bass Print ISBN: 9781118634110, 111863411X eText ISBN: 9781118634080, 111863408X Edition: 1st Format: PDF Available from $ 19.99 USD SKU 9781118634080 Companies hire a CIO to cut costs, but s/he is fired for not creating new value. They hire the next CIO to innovate, but the cost base grows to an untenable level. To be successful, the CIO must really balance these two poles, and do so by formulating an IT strategy that is woven into the business strategies at the corporate and business unit level as well. Drawing on examples from leading companies, this book will help CIOs craft an infrastructure strategy that aligns with the strategic plans formulated by their peers (heads of business units and other c-suite executives) in the rest of the organization. Whether they are CIOs, other members of the IT leadership team, or tech-savvy business leaders, readers will be able to formulate clearer and better IT strategic plans and build bridges to close the gap that exists between IT leaders and business leaders.
