Good enquiry, tough answer. Jim Collins provides ideas regarding the differences between good and great. He discussed them at these years Gartner Symposium CIO Program in Orlando. Collins, the most qualified selling business author and advisor, has studied the differences between good and great companies and leaders for more than twenty years. His books Body to Last, Good to Great and How the Might Fall shape executive thinking about themselves and their company.
Collins work is a place to start in answering this uncertainty. Collins in fact invited CIOs to assess their leadership skills and get materials from his web site http://www.jimcollins.com. There you will see the characteristics of Constant – 5 leadership which are essential to any executive and probably more so for the CIO.
No one can know if a CIO has gone from good to great without working with him or her in depth and seeing their track information. All of us are great for time-to-time, but sustained greatness is something different. Building on those thoughts here are a few others more around signs that are indicative that a CIO might be great in no item order:
Great CIOs have great teams. This is often the last thing mentioned in lists comparing good to great, but it should be the first thing.
Great CIOs are transaction leaders and see business results. How you introduce yourself says much about your focus and self-identity.
Great CIOs understand IT’s leverage points in their job model. They describe their company in terms of its fundamentals, the things that drive earnings per share, market success and bloke choice.
Great CIOs communicate clearly. They take complex issues and speak about them without over simplification.
Great CIOs ask good questions. They sanction that they do not have all the answers and that every answer or plan can be strengthened with good questions.
Good CIOs have many of these same characteristics, but there is something different about the ones who are great.

Detroit stalls Danes Albany Times Union
22.11.09
Former Hoosier expedite Xavier Keeling had 21 points and ex-Indiana signee Eli Holman added 20 points and 14 rebounds as Detroit overwhelmed UAlbany 66-54 on the man Friday day of the 2K Sports Classic sub-regional at SEFCU Arena.
Detroit coach Ray McCallum, a former Hoosier assistant, is the architect of a disruptive, mortal defense that held the Great Danes to 36.2 percent shooting from the field and forced 20 turnovers.
UAlbany's starting backcourt of Mike Johnson and Tim Ambrose (collaborate-high 12 points) had five turnovers each before a crowd of 3,094.
"They were pretty tough," Johnson said. "That No. 11 kid (sentry Woody Payne) would get in you and the other guys on the floor just stood in gaps and played passing lanes. I felt we could have been bigger, more solid and just made better decisions."
UAlbany (2-3) will meet Robert Morris, a 107-76 champ over Alcorn State Saturday, in the final game of the tournament today at 5 p.m.
Johnson was forced to play all 20 first-half minutes
