Abstract
This IDC study presents additional results from IDC' s Forecast for
Management Survey, 2009, specifically regarding skills and staffing in ICT
departments.
"Amidst the gloomy reports we read daily about the state
of the economy, it could be very easy to forget
that a big part of a CIO' s job is making
sure the ICT organisation is ready to act on any
opportunity to make a difference in the business and have
effective strategies in place ready to implement as soon as
the end of the recession is in sight. Savvy CIOs
will be using this time to ensure they have a
strategy focused on recruiting, retaining, and reskilling ICT talent for
a solid ICT staffing foundation when the economy recovers," says
Melissa Martin, senior market analyst, IT Spending and Vertical Markets,
IDC Australia.
