Welcome to the fall edition of PSCI's
client newsletter, the IT Industry Rundown!
As inflation remains elevated, and global markets tumble, fears of
a recession loom.
The good news, however, is that even in a troubling economy there's
still a need for IT.
Still, IT leaders must question how to effectively allocate
resources in order to retain top talent and support
mission-critical projects.
That's why the articles and blog posts shared in this newsletter
all deal with how to thrive during uncertain economic times.
The newsletter leads off, however, with our latest blog post that
details a troubling new trend, "Quiet Quitting.".
I hope you find these articles helpful as you navigate these rocky
waters. As always, please remember to connect with PSCI on
LinkedIn,
Twitter, and
Facebook for the latest IT industry news and
information.
