That is where we all need to become
change agents. It is a very slow process but self education and education into the culture of an organization take time. I have done it, I have seen it done, but it takes time. The question is, does it last after you have left?
If the CIO's are as depicted in the article, then perhaps it is time for some 360 feedback in the organization to find necessary changes. Usually there is a communication breakdown going on and what one party perceives as reality isn't the reality of the other party. (you can interchange CIO and employee for party in that sentence).
Communication is the key and I like the way you express your style of communication. respect, honesty, and trust all things that are earned and need to be done to earn from others.
Like Amcol quoted "Talk the talk and walk the walk".
