Tomorrow's IT Leaders

Our campaign aims to to identify the key skills required by tomorrow’s IT leaders and help today’s IT staff to map the personal and career development path they need to reach the top of their profession

Written by Computing

The UK faces an increasing threat of having insufficient skilled IT leaders to take the technology profession forward, according to a growing number of industry experts.

The wave of redundancies prompted by the recession, the growth in outsourcing and technology changes have created a potential time bomb as traditional career paths to IT management disappear.

For these reasons, Computing has launched Tomorrow’s IT Leaders, a campaign aimed at analysing the impact of these changes and providing a career roadmap for aspiring IT managers.
