Enables companies to have a strategic vision for their Technology function

As an experienced CIO, we work in different areas :

1. Work with the CIO, mentor him/her to look at a strategic direction for technology, create pull from the business and in other allied areas for a long term engagement.
2. Work as the lead CIO / part-time CIO and create a strategic roadmap for technology working with the business leaders
3. Support the CXO and prepare a transformation roadmap and oversee delivery
4. Be a Trusted Advisor to the CXOs on Technology

Generally, these are long term engagements. The approach is to become ‘one of their employees’, cultivate relationships across and make things happen and deliver value.

Ensuring an executive sponsor from your organisation is allocated to the engagement, communicates the rationale behind it and signs off any ‘Terms of Reference’. * Assisting in all possible ways to ensure that a contract, (and confidentiality agreement where necessary) is in place, in advance of any work commencing.

Ensuring all support is in place and access is granted for all and any required data, processes, policies, meeting rooms and nominated resources to enable successful delivery of the engagement.

Ensuring sponsor availability within the agreed timeline, to resolve any significant issues that may impact the timely completion of the engagement, if not resolved in a timely manner.

Respect all personal and professional development of client team members throughout the engagement

This is a flexible engagement and deliverables will depend on the type of engagement. For example with a client the following was the scenario

• Client had a CIO who was too focused on Operations and keeping the lights ‘ON’.
• No new improvements, no upgrades, no additional capabilities for over a decade
• The reason provided was always business not ready for a change, not willing to invest
