My second student just graduated, and I am about to receive my third student in the coming school year. I find it be extremely satisfying to teach a student how to prepare a technology business case, and at the same time find myself reflecting on my own management style, something I am constantly learning and tweaking.

I can't think of a better way for a future CTO or CIO to prepare for the job, and I've given this advice to aspiring CTOs. Check out this recent article on the program.
