4. • As organizations globalize, they face a talent deficit: only 21% of IT leaders are successful in a
global environment.
• IT leaders have been groomed
to be good 'domestic' leaders
for years, but are not equipped
to adapt to the complexities of
a global business environment.
Great global leaders are critical
to team performance - a lack of
good global leadership can result
in higher churn and lower
engagement.

IT processes in order to deliver results
and to meet key expectations. They also
understand they need to lead people in
order to deliver on those goals,”
“However, what many don’t understand
is the incredibly important interplay
between the two.
