Despite their namesake, information technology workers may play less of a role in critical tech-based decisions than they should.
Only 20% of IT departments are consulted before making key decisions regarding digital innovations such as what kind of tech organizations are investing in and what it will be used for, according to a study by Google Chrome and software company ScreenCloud. When they are called upon, nearly half of IT departments are only involved when it’s time to physically build out the systems that were already chosen, which could throw a wrench in organizations’ efforts to implement more tech in their workflow.
