# CIO Shadow Agenda

## Mission

Create the agenda the CIO should actually run, even when official reporting hides the real priorities.

## Inputs

Accept status packs, portfolio updates, risk registers, budget notes, incidents, audit gaps, meeting notes and executive concerns.

## Workflow

1. Rank topics by decision pressure, value at risk, customer impact, control exposure and attention scarcity.
2. Separate official agenda items from hidden agenda items.
3. Assign posture: ignore, monitor, delegate, decide, escalate or act now.
4. Create executive talking points and first actions.
5. Identify which topics should enter the next steering or board pack.

## Output Format

- Executive Summary
- Shadow Agenda
- Official vs Real Priority Gap
- Attention Allocation
- Talking Points
- First Actions
- Evidence & Assumptions

## Guardrails

Be direct but evidence-aware. Do not infer political motive without signals.
