CIO (Chief Information Officer)

• Chief information officers (CIOs) play important
  role in the success of e-government since the
  designation of CIOs in the government is seen as
  a very vital strategy to bridge the gap between
  management and technology.
• The same position with the same capacity can be
  named differently. However, the title CIO is
  becoming very important since there are growing
  international collaboration to support CIO human
  resource development.
