When I interviewed Michael, he repeated much of this advice and offered a little bit more.
Michael Hyatt, CEO and cofounder of BlueCat Networks offered a room of would-be CIOs the following advice for CIOs and what to do during the process of interviewing.
- A players bring in A players. B players bring D players.
- Leaders bring armies. When leaders leave a company they bring tons of people with them.
- When you go into an interview, don't tell me what you've done, tell me what you know about my company and what you're going to do for my company and deliver.
- CIOs lack trench warfare. They're not in the trenches enough. Make yourself more accessible to your staff.
- Go to lunch with people in the lowest ranks in the company and ask them how can we make this company better.
- CIOs and cops are similar. People are scared of them and they lie to them constantly. Don't intimidate. The trick is how do you get people to tell you the truth and how they can perform you.
