Abstract
With so many companies investing millions in IT projects, the chief information officer was often seen as the second most important executive in the company. But today, CIOs are the target of a lot of grumbling. Perhaps companies are feeling burned by all their IT investments. So is firing the CIO the right answer? According the experts, that isn''t the right question you should be asking yourself. Read what the technology panel--including Clayton Hubner, C.K. Prahald, John Seely Brown, and John Hagel--had to say about firing your CIO and their suggestions for other fixes for your company''s IT problems. The ideas in this article are based on a panel discussion that took place this past May at the Burning Questions 2002 conference, a gathering of leading practitioners and management experts, sponsored by Harvard Business School Publishing.
