Career crossroads - CIO or CTO?: essential reading for all ICT managers

Pundits implore them to focus on persuading service managers of the transformational potential of ICT, and then helping them to restructure their service delivery by exploiting their information assets with appropriate technology. However, their experience and instincts tell them that their job is to provide 99.95% service availability, and to safeguard diligently the security of the organisation's information.
