The CTO will be the guardian of the current business, while the CIO will be the guardian of future business. We can do business strategy. We can determine the right systems investments.

The job can be just too demanding. First of all, the CIO is expected to contribute to business development and to strategy discussions about e-commerce initiatives. Some of the e-commerce initiatives have been happening without the CIO or the IT department getting involved at all. And sometimes the CIO is coming in a bit late. There's never been a more exciting time.
