Hey, CIO, You're More than Just a Change Agent

The chief information officer isn't just change agent, which is somewhat an outmoded idea, but the change predictor and the change shaper. There's been a dramatic power shift in the organization. CIOs, for all intents and purposes, have an opportunity to predict changes and to be a force for motivating the rest of the organization, including the CEO and the board, to change. But, quite frankly, many CIOs don't think that's their role.
