CIO en VO : un quart des DSI viré pour performances insuffisantesEdition du 31/03/2009 - par CIO Etats-Unis Une enquête menée aux Etats-Unis par nos confrères du CIO local établit les motifs de licenciements des DSI comparativement aux autres directions de l'entreprise. Un quart est viré pour cause de performances insuffisantes, soit bien plus que leurs collègues DRH ou DAF, mais des pistes existent pour éviter de passer à la trappe trop facilement. Perhaps we can't retire the old saw that "CIO" stands for "career is over" just yet. Nearly one in four CIOs gets let go for poor performance, according to a new survey by CIO and Human Resource Executive. When asked why their companies' previous IT leader left, 23 percent of the 265 human resources managers polled said it was involuntary for performance reasons. The dismissal rate matched that for CFOs but was higher than that for HR managers (19 percent) and sales managers (18 percent), the survey found. And the bigger the company, the more likely the CIO will be dismissed-either fired or a victim of downsizing: 43 percent of IT heads at companies over $1 billion or more in sales left involuntarily, versus 29 percent at mid-market companies of $100 million to $1 billion and 23 percent at small companies of less than $100 million in sales. Of course, "poor performance" is open to interpretation, notes Greg Ambrose, president of Catalyst Search Group. "What a new CEO defines as poor might be exactly what the old CEO wanted," he says. The larger the organization, the more complex the issues, systems and politics, he adds. Taking into account the many reasons someone leaves a job-including taking a new position or retiring-the turnover rate among CIOs is about the same as for other senior executives, the survey says. CIO tenure is six years and three months, the same as for heads of sales but less than HR heads (six years, four months) and CFOs (seven years).
