Public CIO, figurehead or decision-maker? The case of Germany

Niels Proske, Moreen Heine, Norbert Gronau

Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the position of CIO in the German states. In Germany, public CIOs range from figureheads to real decision-makers. We identified three CIO types: first, the Political CIO, who has substantial resources but less IT competencies; second, the Operational CIO, who manages IT primarily close to actual projects; third, the Decorative CIO, who serves predominantly for public image. Thus, the institution of CIO moves between catchphrase and e-government enabler.
