Information Asset Manager
Nowadays de CIO of a company is usually an IT person taking care of buying desktops, the contract for the network, some application development, etc. In short - the CIO is mainly in charge of the T of technology, and therefore in most IT policy the T is more important than the I of information.My vision is that in the future this will be moving to become an Information Asset Manager. Gradually we are seeing the commoditisation of desktop support, networks, and even lots of applications (to me SAP R3 is also a commodity ...). Hopefully this will give us more room to focus on what really counts - out assets, our information assets.
Probably this will require a new generation of managers, since the current generation at the top (and below) has all been grown and rewarded in a technology culture. Therefore we should be hiring a different type of people today to become the managers of tomorrow. Else we will nog see a culture change (and therefore no step change in the way we manage information!)
