Welcome back to “CIO Career Coach,” a video series I created with CIO.com and IDG.tv. This season, we’re discussing the skills that top CIOs are developing to be successful in the new era of IT.
In this episode we are talking about shadow IT and how CIOs can shift their approach from trying to rein in a pesky problem to thinking of shadow IT as “end user innovation.”
Ten years ago, the term “shadow IT” described the staff that your business partners hired to develop their own solutions. But today, with cloud services, shadow IT is a much larger concept. It occurs whenever a business partner buys a cloud application without consulting IT.

We’ve all been there — you make sure you get an early night for once, only to wake up groggy and unfocused at work. After trying so hard to get to bed on time, you’re rewarded with feeling even worse.
As it turns out, regularly going to bed and waking up at the same time might be the only way to counteract the sleepiness and increase your overall workplace or academic performance.
A new small study from the Division of Sleep and Circadian Disorders, Brigham and Women’s Hospital looked at the behaviours of 61 full-time students at Harvard College, and found that irregular sleeping patterns was linked with a lower grade point average (GPA.) The results were published in the journal Scientific Reports.
The students were asked to keep sleep diaries for 30 days. The researchers came up with a sleep regularity index, or SRI, to analyse how regular their sleep was by measuring sleep duration and distribution of sleep across the day. This was then compared to their overall academic performance over one semester.
Students who had more regular sleeping patterns had better grades, but this wasn’t because they were sleeping more. The researchers found that there was no significant difference in the average sleep duration between the regular and irregular sleepers. However, the team did find that the irregular sleepers had shifted their circadian rhythms — or biological clocks.
They worked this out by measuring the times melatonin was released, which is the hormone produced by the pineal gland in the brain to prepare our body for sleep. On average, melatonin was released 2.6 hours later in students with the most irregular sleeping habits compared to those who woke up and went to sleep at more or less the same time every day.
“For the students whose sleep and wake times were inconsistent, classes and exams that were scheduled for 9 a.m. were therefore occurring at 6 a.m. according to their body clock, at a time when performance is impaired,” said Charles A. Czeisler, the Director of the Sleep Health Institute and senior author on the paper, in a statement.
“Ironically, they didn’t save any time because in the end they slept just as much as those on a more regular schedule.”
The lead author of the paper, a biologist named Andrew J. K. Phillips, concluded that going to sleep and waking up at approximately the same time is just as important as the number of hours you sleep. This is why we get so groggy when the clocks go forwards and we lose an hour of sleep.
Our body clocks are also particularly sensitive to light. Sunlight is something called a zeitgeber, which is any external or environmental cue that helps synchronize your biological rhythm to the 24 hour cycle. We tend to release melatonin when it starts getting dark, but nowadays we have a habit of checking our phones and playing on our laptops at night, which can get our bodies out of sync.
