no real surprises here. Because the conversations are still wrongly focused on the 'value' of technology. Sadly, if experience is a guide, nothing much will change until, and unless, the conversation moves forward, by finally recognising that IT has little real business value, except as a contributory factor - in combination with people, process and organisation. The role of the genuinely effective CIO is not to justify the value of IT, or even to interpose with business strategy; it is to make sure that the organisation is coherent and congruent, internally and externally, through effective information systems.
