Given the title of my Blog âChief Technology Officerâs Blogâ â I thought it would be a good idea to briefly explore itâs namesake. The role of the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) is one of the least defined and understood corporate executive roles (such as CEO, COO, CFO, CIO, etc).

Both the CIO and CTO should also be strategic thinkers in terms of business and technology. However, while the CTO primarily focuses on the top line, the CIO's focus is on the business' bottom line. Ideally, the CTO heads the product development phases of a company, while the CIO runs the IT departments.
