New York, NY (PRWEB) August 25, 2015 -- Richard Siemer, former Chief Information Officer (CIO) for the New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA), provides an inner view of his career in a recent interview with Phil Weinzimer, correspondent for Sarder TV, the independent online video learning channel. In the interview, Richard discusses how his desire to have a service directed career led to his becoming the CIO of New York's HRA, an organization that provides resources to more than four million New Yorkers. He also provides his insight on how the the role of the CIO has changed over the years.
“Richard Siemer provides a real role model for CIOs. His video interview offers viewers the opportunity to hear from an individual who had immense responsibility in his job. He had to get it right, from dealing with a crisis like Katrina, to day to day operations of such a large service organization,” said Russell Sarder, CEO of NetCom Learning and the creator of Sarder TV.
One of the topics covered in the Sarder TV interview with Richard Siemer is the difference in being the Chief Information Officer (CIO) of a public service government organization versus being a CIO in the private sector. He discusses the different issues that arise from being CIO in an organization that must deal with administrations that are elected for a limited amount of time, budget constraints and being able to demonstrate long term values for strategic business decisions while dealing with the political nature of the job. Siemer offers a thoughtful discussion of how being in the public sector affects a variety of issues from leadership style, introducing innovation into the organization and keeping current as a CIO.
