Transforming Tech Experts Into Skilled Business Leaders
Feb 08, 2023
Technology Strategy for Leaders
According to the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs report, the top 10 jobs of 2025 are all technical roles. But only two of the top 10 skills necessary are technical—the other eight skills are leadership and business related.
This difference highlights the growing need for leadership and management skills in the technology workforce. Typically, a technical professional is promoted to a managerial role because they excel in a functional role. But managing people and delivering results with a team requires an entirely new skill set. Tech leaders need to be able to explain how writing a piece of code can enable an organization to deliver on its business goals or speak to senior leadership to make a business case for their team’s work.
