Description

Many technical professionals are tossed into their new position of managing an IT department without enough training or experience – let alone a clear idea of what is expected of them. Other technicians are trying to decide if they should join the ranks of management, and want the real facts about managing – and managing other technical pros – before they decide. To compound the issue, most companies have become highly dependent on their IT departments for their day-to-day business operations – often including revenue generation – so the tasks are critical and the learning curve is steep. The IT Manager's Handbook, 2nd edition provides essential information needed to manage the new responsibilities thrust on you (or the ones you would like to have): vital tasks such as creating budgets, evaluating technologies, administering compliance, and managing staff.
