CTO - The Secret to Success?

The CTO is responsible for the technological vision of a company of Praetorian size. "You've got to be technically strong," he says, but it's also about gathering consensus and making everyone feel involved. He describes his job as like being the captain of a soccer team: You're very often not the best player on the field,. But your job is to get people together and get them all pulling in the same direction so we can score a goal.
