The position of CIO is always in transition: technology changes, and the pace continues to accelerate; business challenges never seem to stop and in fact are tougher than ever; the funding for information technology is both bestowed and sometimes resented by other C-level colleagues. To survive these and the hundreds of other critical issues, the CIO is required to navigate these waves of change. In this chaotic sea of ambivalence and upheaval there is a source of support, of order, of rationale thinking and information, that's CIO Magazine. But CIO is more than a source of information in multiple media. It is the ultimate network of professionals engaged in helping colleagues survive and thrive. Thanks CIO, thanks to all of you who participate and share your views and experience. It matters!!
