| Abstract: | The significant role of technology in strategic business decisions has created the need for executives who understand technology and recognize profitable applications to products, services and processes. Many companies have addressed this need through the appointment of a chief technology officer (ÑÒÎ) whose responsibilities include: monitoring new technologies and assessing their potential to become new products or services; overseeing the selection of research projects to ensure that they have the potential to add value to the company; providing reliable technical assessments of potential mergers and acquisitions, etc. Integrating these technology-based activities into the corporate strategy requires that the ÑÒÎ nurture effective relationships with key people throughout the company. |
