The IT Leader Skills Gap
It's common for organizations to have some level of IT support in place, whether inhouse computer technicians or outsourced to an IT service provider. They may be doing a great job at supporting you, or they may not be. Or, you simply may not know how to gauge their performance - but you need them to keep your technology running.
But many organizations can’t justify having an IT Director/CIO on staff, so who is seeing the bigger picture and moving technology forward in a meaningful way? Let's remember a computer technicians focus (and experience) is to maintain your technology. So who's planning, improving, budgeting, negotiating, optimizing, innovating & communicating. Who's managing your technology risk? Who's experienced to make those critical decisions in the best interest of the organization? Who's advising leadership, ownership and the board? Who is making sure technology is driving results and shaping the organizations future?
ourCIO gives organizations that much needed access to business technology experience so you can trust someone to lead you in the right direction. With ourCIO, you now have an IT Director/CIO on your team!
