| description | As a CIO with an IT staff of four, Steven Porter understands full well what it takes to do more with less. His team at Touchstone Behavioral Health is tasked with stretching a shoestring IT budget to cover big-enterprise-style initiatives like virtualization and VLANs, while at the same time providing hands-on support to more than 200 users scattered across the state of Arizona. It's an upside for plenty of IT professionals who, like Porter, see value in being a big technology fish in a small pond. As CIO of the nonprofit Make-A-Wish Foundation of America, Jim Toy finds fulfillment not just in helping his organization carry out its mission, but also in orchestrating leading-edge technology deployments with an eye toward maximizing limited budgetary resources. During his tenure, Toy has developed a talent for soliciting hardware and software donations from vendors. That's a unique assignment that only a ClO at a nonprofit would be expected to undertake. |
