A CAIO scorecard is not a sports sheet.
It is seat writing.
Must. Must-not. Before names.
If you search “CAIO Scorecard” and land on football, you are in the wrong category. If you write the scorecard before the longlist, you have opened the mandate.
Christian Pobbig and Beyond Chiefs work from Hamburg on AI Executive Search in DACH. This page is the CAIO-specific seat scorecard — not the generic scorecard-before-longlist instrument and not football noise.
Written must/must-not for the CAIO seat.
It names what the bearer must carry in DACH — and what they must not.
It is not a ranking.
It is not a personality grid.
It is the operating instrument before candidate names appear.
Without a scorecard the longlist stays chemistry.
Not the #74 “scorecard before longlist” generic spine.
Not football CAIO Scorecard SERP.
Not a hiring-template farm and not a competence-percentage table.
A one-line pointer to #74 is fine. The spine here is CAIO seat, DACH, must/must-not.
Must: Which yes-calls, which stop rights, which proof the board will accept.
Must-not: What the CAIO will not become — lab owner, pure tool buyer, decorative title without budget ownership.
Miss must-not and the market fills the gap with the loudest CV.
Miss must and you buy hope.
Because CAIO seats in DACH often get a title without a cut.
Because longlists without a scorecard substitute peer pressure for judgment.
Because boards without must/must-not “still adjust” after start — and burn the seat.
The scorecard makes the cut public. Before the first call.
If the CAIO seat is real, retain the AI Executive Search mandate with a written CAIO scorecard DACH.
If you are only collecting names, you do not have a scorecard yet.
No. CAIO-specific, DACH, seat. Generic lives elsewhere.
Because the seat carries governance and reporting lines here — not because of football.
The CEO — or whoever owns the yes — with Beyond Chiefs, not HR alone.
