The role of Chief Information Officer has become the corporate world's ultimate paradox. You're hired to be strategic but spend most of your time on operational issues. You must simultaneously cut costs while driving innovation. You're expected to maintain legacy systems while embracing emerging technologies. And perhaps most frustratingly, you're held accountable for project success without having direct control over business resources. This constant state of contradiction creates a position where CIOs are often "damned if they do and damned if they don't." Werner Boeing, CIO of Roche Diagnostics, captures this perfectly: "We're in an 'And' philosophy now. You have to be cost effective and you have to be innovative." This represents a fundamental shift from IT's traditional focus on standardization to a new expectation of driving business model innovation while maintaining operational excellence. Not all technology leaders possess what might be called "the chameleon factor" - the ability to seamlessly shift between operational concerns and innovation leadership.
