Why this book?

Today’s CIOs know that strategic IT initiatives are the key to driving competitive advantage, profitability, and organizational resilience.
But breaking through budget barriers and board skepticism is harder than ever.

Too much “thought leadership” and “advice” is really just vendor marketing.

The most successful CIOs know what actually works.


What makes this book different?

I’m collecting the real best practices from actual CIOs.

And distilling it into actionable playbooks, checklists, and proven negotiation strategies.

No theory. No fluff.

Just concise, field-validated tools that CIOs actually use to secure project approvals and drive business results.
