CIO to CEO – Barriers and Opportunities – Phase II

This is a continuation of a MITACS sponsored study for the Chief Information Officers

Association of Canada, Ontario Chapter, to assist its members in long term career planning

and development. It will refine and further validate a model for advancement from CIO to

CEO, by interviewing CEOs who have successfully made the transition. In total, some 50

CEOs will participate, who are currently leading large organisations in Canada and the United

States. This is new work, addressing a topic about which there has been much speculation,

but little field research. Support of the CIO Association will facilitate recruitment of the study

participants. The project findings will be disseminated in a White Paper to be published by the

Association, in at least 1 refereed journal paper and will also be presented at a national CIO

Conference in 2012. The Intern will have a unique opportunity to meet with and interview top

executives from a wide range of organisations.
