Description: As DoD and the Navy move into the 21stCentury, information technologies are abounding not only in volume but also in complexity. In order to manage and leverage these technologies, there needs to be a clear vision and it must start at the very top of the DoD Enterprise. With this vision, it will then become the responsibility of the Chief Information Integration Officer (CI2O), previously known as the Chief Information Officer (CIO), at each command to implement that vision. The real challenge is determining what exactly the CI2O needs to know and the role the CI2O should play in the command. Once the requirements are identified, how do we ensure the officer's success? This thesis examines these questions. The results of a meta-analysis from a variety of studies are portrayed in a matrix which identify the critical success factors, reporting levels, roles, core competencies, education and experience to clearly define the requirements for an effective CIO to be implemented into Navy organizations.
