The world of IT is changing. IT organizations – and IT professionals - must change with it. The days of command and control are coming to an end and IT professionals at all levels of the organization must learn how to function on business terms and to lead as part of their daily function. Even if you are leading a team of one, it will no longer be sufficient to be a great technician or tactician. To compete in the new world of IT, IT professionals must become 21st Century IT Leaders.
