THE EVOLUTION OF BUSINESS DEPARTMENTS

For decades, businesses worldwide operated with only accounting and finance departments, human resources divisions, marketing departments, R&D teams, purchasing departments, production departments, and management teams. However, times have changed. Today, corporations in every industry must also include an IT department to maintain a competitive edge, protect their data, and develop their brand. Unfortunately, many companies still struggle to make this transition effectively.

THE CHALLENGE OF HIRING IT TALENT

Because of high demand, technology professionals now expect high salaries, exceptional benefits packages, and ideal working environments. While most professionals desire these things, unlike many others, IT professionals don’t have to compromise. In today’s market, they can afford to be selective.

Moreover, the field faces little competition. Few people understand modern technology, yet nearly everyone demands sophisticated devices, high-tech software, secure data exchanges, and user-friendly web platforms.

THE REALITY OF THE IT TALENT POOL

Although it may seem like job candidates should be lining up to earn IT degrees and apply for open positions, the IT field remains far from candidate-rich. In fact, most IT professionals feel satisfied with their current roles—thanks in part to generous compensation and benefits—and show little interest in switching jobs. For example, a recent poll revealed that out of 4,800 IT professionals surveyed, only 9% expressed a desire to work for a different company.

HOW WE CAN HELP

Hiring the right IT professionals and managing that team requires a specialized skill set. Your average office manager likely lacks the IT workforce management experience needed to lead a technology team effectively. That’s just the reality.

With so many challenges, including:

Corporate, government, and domestic security threats,
The need for secure backup, storage, and disaster recovery,
The growing demand for cloud integration, and more.

Your CTO must fully understand the task at hand each day. And as experience shows, in the world of technology, that task can change drastically from one day to the next.
