Abstract	This Delphi study asked a 25-member expert panel of higher education technology leaders to examine requirements for their role and make predictions a future higher education technology leader (eg. Chief Information Officer or CIO) will need to succeed. The panel, representing a range of institution sizes and types, assisted in exploring the following research questions supporting this study: 1. What are the key functional roles of the higher education technology leader in 5-10 years? 2. What are the essential skills a higher education technology leader will need in 5-10 years? 3. What is the ideal formal education a higher education technology leader will need in 5-10 years? 4. What is the ideal career path a higher education technology leader will need in 5-10 years? The panel found broad agreement on the roles and skills a future higher education technology leader will require with 90% and 85% of items respectively reaching agreement on likeliness. In contrast, there was little agreement on what the formal education requirements for this individual should be nor was there agreement on the career experiences one requires to be successful in the role with only 13% and 32% of items reaching agreement on likeliness. The panel also agreed the CIO title was likely to be the primary title in the future despite the introduction of new "chief" titles relating to technology. This information can be used by aspiring CIOs to plan their career or to design professional development programs and other educational opportunities.
