| For CIOs, IT staffing is a little like going to the dentist: You know it’ll be painful, but you’ll feel better once you deal with it. Today, filling the skills gap has become a top priority as leaders grapple with the pace of technological change. The most strategic CIOs aren’t just plugging holes but also redefining how their organization is building future-ready, resilient teams. In most cases, upskilling/reskilling is the answer, enabling IT leaders to grow talent from within, on top of recruiting and outsourcing efforts. Regardless of approach, there’s no question the need to address skills gaps is essential, especially for companies seeking AI and machine learning (ML) expertise. |
