About Transformational Leadership -
At leading regional and global corporations, turnaround experts of a different kind have started to take the technology helm as transformed business processes become a competitive advantage – and even a matter of survival. Such transformational chief informational officers are usually charged with leading cultural change to enable re-engineering of business processes across the enterprise. They typically have a strategic technology vision as well as a deep understanding of the various businesses within the business, and of the competitive landscape outside the business.

Some of the attributes of transformational CIOs are:

• Credibility with the CEO. Joined at the head rather than the hip – of one mind with the CEO.

• Superior communication skills.

• Ability to look right across the business and into the future.

• Ability to look at the enterprise, create a five-year horizon and then ask what innovations do we need to make now that in five years will be driving this business?

With the addition of leaders who possess a deep understanding of the business and the competitive environment, true technological change becomes possible. But who are such transformational executives, how do they do it and how do I gain the skills needed to become such a leader?
