IT is undergoing a transformation inside companies. Gone are the days of an IT department isolated from the rest of the company. For businesses to remain competitive, IT needs to integrate with the rest of the business operation. Helen Tang from HP's Converged Infrastructure team talks about how CIOs can plan for this change by enabling the workforce to acquire new skills, while also offering suggestions for how IT workers can navigate this new technology landscape by cross-training on several disciplines instead of specializing in one. HP has committed to this transition by providing a number of free online training opportunities on the HP ExpertOne site.
