Economic hardship can quickly cut already lean IT headcounts down to sub-minimum levels. Adopting an agile approach to workforce management is one method for doing more with less during times plagued with change and uncertainty.

• Why agility is so critical to survival during an economic downturn.

• The key components and traits of an agile workforce.

• Barriers to agile workforce success. • Tactical recommendations for agile workforce adoption.
