The challenge...
“I think my role as CIO is one of the loneliest at board level...”, this is a view that we’ve both heard and experienced. It’s also a view we’d agree with.
Whether you’re called the CIO or the IT Director the nature of the role is extremely challenging. On one hand you’re expected to take a 50,000 feet high strategic view, and then in the same breath be able to explain to the CEO why the email system is running slowly! You’re working in one of the fastest moving business areas and having to make decisions which often as not effect the entire organisation, and to cap it all off you seem to have little or no time to keep up with the key trends.
CIO Support -
There’s no shortage of firms offering CIO advisory services. Gartner, Forrester, Deloittes, Atos, PWC, Ernst & Young, niche consulting firms etc. When we designed the plainTalk CIO Support service in conjunction with our existing clients, we knew we had to provide, from the outset, a comparable base service –so we do, but we went further than this... to create a service that’s more flexible, modularised and affordable than our competitors. Take a look in our rates section if you’d like to find out more about just how accessible our service is.
