Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) should employ multi-skilled IT professionals in order to strategically improve business performance, experts claim.
According to comments by the British Computer Society (BCS), the employment of IT professionals with transferable skills in areas such as management would be beneficial to the performance of SMEs, reports bCentral.
"We are seeing IT becoming endemic, in the sense that everybody in business is using it and needs to understand it," said Mike Chad, a representative for the BSC.
"The demand for the IT professional who can build bridges between the business and the providers of commodity technical skills has never been greater," he added.
In related news, the BCS held a half-day workshop earlier today on the enhancement of professionalism within the IT business sector.
