The chief technology officer (CTO) is an individual who oversees the present technology and creates relevant policy. A CTO is expected to have the business knowledge necessary to align tech-savvy decisions with the organization’s goals. In addition to fixing IT-related issues, the CTO is responsible for developing, implementing, managing and evaluating the company’s technology resources as well. The goal of a CTO is to scrutinize both short- and long-term needs while utilizing capital to make investments that aid the organization in reaching its goals.

Some of the responsibilities of a CTO are monitoring social and technology trends that could influence the organization’s business goals and identify opportunities and risks for the business. With technology upgrading on a daily basis, it is important for a CTO to remain updated about the upgradation!
