Changes to the Roles of Your IT Staff

Enterprise Architect

With the evolution of cloud computing, some of the roles of your IT staff may be changing. In the cloud, silos break down and responsibilities converge, and the focus shifts to thinking holistically.
The more important need is for IT staff that can think strategically, devise cloud-based solutions to drive the business, and focus more on enhancing the customer experience.

To help with the transition, provide the following:

  • Training, time, and tenancy to explore the cloud environment.
  • A clear understanding of how their current role will be adapted for the cloud.
  • A clear mapping of all roles in the cloud, and how they will be adapted.
  • A clearly articulated business case for using cloud technologies.
  • Shared goals across all roles of enabling the business by leveraging cloud technology.
  • Set goals for cloud certification based on role.
  • Engage in workshops or hackathons to show the art of the possible with the cloud.
