My Information Technology Ministry Sep 17, 2011 04:37:08 PM | Linda Cureton
 
I'm new to the role of Co-chair of the Federal CIO Council’s Architecture and Infrastructure Committee. But, I can see similarities between this and other roles I’ve had at church. Sure, some enterprise architects are zealots about what they believe, but the real similarity comes in leading volunteers when you have no direct control or authority over them. So, one of the best way to get experience as a CIO is to volunteer for leadership in the IT programs at church or in the community.

I appreciate the opportunity to contribute to the goals of President Obama’s administration as it relates to improving how IT is managed in the Federal Government. We support the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 25 Point Plan with many activities from NASA’s stellar IT program.

CIOs need to remember that people in their organizations – their customers -- are all consumers. CIOs shouldn’t be content in their ability to rule their world as expectations of consumers continue to creep into the workplace

Leadership Versus Management Oct 23, 2010 06:51:22 PM | Linda Cureton
 
I threw the concept out about the differences between leadership versus management and got this strange quizzical look from a few of my strong managers in the room. I’ve seen that look many times over the past decade from some executives on my team. But, what is the difference really? And why does it matter?
