About the Resource Center These resources recommend activities, processes, and strategies for IT leaders to manage staffing changes and leadership transitions. IT staff management is a perennial concern for most CIOs, as staff continue to be the most important resource in any IT organization. IT leaders often take reactive approaches to change because they are focused on operational issues, which may cause problems such as gaps in skills or knowledge and misalignment of IT goals with institutional goals. Further, times of CIO transitions can be challenging, but they offer opportunities to inflect great changes and can impact IT strategies for years to come.
