Finally, you should be able to build the culture that works.
Would You Actually Recommend This Job to Anyone? What Makes It Special?
I would definitely recommend it. There is one and only government CIO. There is no other position like that in Finland or any country. Because ICT and digitalization are cross-cutting themes, you are then able to see so much. You can see all the ministries and how they work, all the municipalities. You also see the private sector, if you work with them in your network—and you should. In Finland, working in the Ministry of Finance as the “super ministry” is especially worth it as you see how it works and operates.
What Are the Key Recommendations You Would Have for a Peer on How to Do the GCIO Work the Most Effectively?
First of all, you have to create the strategy and to have the big picture about where to go. This is necessary for yourself, for your team, for your network or for your state. As I said, the team of experts will move in the direction you show by themselves. If the goal is clear and they see the big picture, they are then able to deliver it and you do not need any management at the level of details.
Second—and it is related—you really need the network. You need the people and to know the people. You need to create this network, and not only in your own country but other countries as well. That makes you able to see the big picture better. If you do not have the network, then you do not hear, you do not learn, and you do not see when you need to revise your direction.
Finally, deliver what you have promised!
