But now a days , CIO’s role is like One of the Key Business Leader and directly involved in business growth, Cost reductions, Influencer , Business controller with IT resource management. In some companies CIO’s also have the responsibility of recruitment and I believe that He/She will recruit the RIGHT PEOPLE with RIGHT JOBS. He closely monitors the Policy , take the risks and define the strategy to maintain the business balance. He plays the Change agent role and in many cases part of the Decision maker. He guides the organization in DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION and closely interacts with various stake holders of the organizations.
