About this Podcast:
The Smart IT Podcast, where IT professionals can assemble and hear from each other, industry leaders, thought leaders, and those in adjacent fields to collaborate and learn from each other and explore what’s next for IT. The Smart IT Podcast explores what’s next for IT as it continues to find ways to get the important things done for our organizations. Preparing for the next decade, we need to think differently about how we approach our work to continue to thrive into the future. Smart IT is an approach, conceptual framework, and development model to getting the important things done by transforming the way traditional IT thinks, works, and leads. It supports the disruption of the status quo, simplifies the complex, reduces uncertainty, and improves risk mitigation. There has never been more pressure to deliver for our organizations; but I know IT is up to the challenge. That will require IT to lead by working smarter. Let’s do it together.
