For those who have worked with or as a CISO, what are the most critical skills beyond technical expertise that a CISO needs to be effective in information security management? How does the role vary depending on the organization’s size and industry?

I’m a little confused on where the CISO fits in the organisation hierarchy and what his/her decisions mean for the cybersecurity team.
