Created on: Oct 20, 2009 1:57 PM by Info-TechResearchGroup - Last Modified:  Oct 20, 2009 1:58 PM by Info-TechResearchGroup

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.

This research note discusses how to develop an agile workforce to meet the demands of the new economy, including:

• 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.

Economic uncertainty can bring dramatic change. Ability to respond quickly to that change will differentiate players in every market. Build an agile workforce so that IT can bring the right people forward at the right time to effectively meet changing business demand.
