Abstract
This presentation is about the experiences of contemporary Chief Information Officer (CIO). CIOs in New Zealand, Taiwan, and the United States of America agreed to participate. They also agreed to be identified along with the name of their company. They provided their interpretation of issues that have been dealt with and those they anticipate having to deal with in the foreseeable future. The results of the interviews allowed the identification of emerging themes related to management and technological aspects. Another important result is the identification of an alignment issue. Emerging themes are identified relative to both management and technological aspects. In general, it is noted that the CIO role is now emphasizing more of the management aspects than the technological aspects.
