The changing role of the IT Leader

IT leaders faced a number of challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. They were responsible for getting employees working from home, many for the first time, with the tools, data, and support they needed to stay productive. Many achieved this at short notice and on tight budgets. Looking to the future, it's time to reset strategy and rebuild organizational resilience for the post‑pandemic age.
