10 simple rules for CIOs
Here are five simple rules for managing through tough times, from cioinsight
1. Maintain focus on key projects that will yield long-term business advantage
2. Prioritize other projects to push faster ROI jobs to the fore
3. Slow down on other worthwhile projects, but don't cut them altogether
4. Be prepared to make a cogent business case for all jobs to executive management
5. Communicate with staff, recognizing the toll hard times take even on those with good jobs
These are simple strategy rules (ZEAF rows 1/2), not detailed business rules (rows 3/4/5). I'll add more "rules of thumb" for CIOs later.
(ZEAF refers to the Zachman Enterprise Architecture Framework to be discussed in the AA EA group.
