Abstract
This IDC study provides a blueprint for establishing and maintaining a continuous learning environment in the IT organization. It enables IT organizations to cultivate a learning culture that positions them to strategically develop their own IT talent with the right technical and leadership competencies (i.e., grow strategy) instead of depending on successfully acquiring technical talent (i.e., buy strategy).
"Though labor statistics suggest that corporate loyalty is at all-time lows, the data also suggests that employee development programs positively impact employee retention rates," says Damon Carter, adjunct analyst with IDC's IT Executive Programs (IEP). "In addition, IT leaders have a unique opportunity to strengthen their organizations and address historic equity issues by employing innovative talent acquisition strategies to diversify the workforce."
