CIO Recruitment & Retention Services (CRRS)
Our quantitative analysis of over 3000 advertised UK CIO roles has enabled us to develop a new, unique framework for redefining the CIOs role in digitally maturing environments.
Chief Information Officer (CIO) roles are tenuous
Inconsistency in CIO role definition and appraisal results in:
- Role confusion
- CIO demotivation and high turnover
- Diminished digital transformation capabilities
Getting role definition ‘right first time’ avoids many of these issues.
This is where we help.
We help clients define the CIOs role using our new CIO definition framework
As one of the most critical roles in today’s Top Management Team, we believe that traditional CIO recruitment and retention practices represent a significant risk to effective IT operations and attainment of digital maturity.
By applying our newly developed insights into CIO role definition and development we support those wishing to recruit and retain the most effective CIO.
We advise clients and their recruitment teams in defining the CIOs role using the five dimensions of our CIO definition framework.
Our services encompass the entire CIO recruitment and retention process
We:
- Review the effectiveness of previous/ incumbent CIO
- Collaborate with your teams to (re)establish current and future CIO role requirements
- Support your recruitment teams in casting the net
- Assist you with the shortlisting and selection process
- Advise on CIO role assessment frameworks
- Work with your TMT and the newly appointed CIO to develop CIO role development plans
- Coach and mentor your CIOs to continuously enhance their overall effectiveness
Whilst we often find that clients achieve the most successful long-term outcomes when achieving consensus on CIO role definition at the recruitment stage, our clients also have the option to reset role perceptions for incumbent CIOs.
In either scenario, we seek to ensure that all parties reach agreement on role expectations and (where necessary) have also reached agreement on an action plan for continued effectiveness.
Our analysis of 3000 advertised CIO roles has enabled us to develop a unique, new insight into problems with CIO recruitment and retention.
