There is a role that is necessary within the IT management structure is lacking. In my opinion, this role has been able to keep large companies many millions of dollars a year while contributing significantly to the general health of all departments and their personnel. While working on the dumb-month projected that the Administrative higher for companies in many countries, I have never seen anyone take this position or perform this role. THE PROBLEM: To explain the role and where it falls within, we must make a very quick review of a typical IT hierarchy of the administration. Please pray that your organization may have a variation of this design and can not reflect exactly your structure – but scommettevo it 's close. & Graceful; amp; # 8232; & amp; # 8232; Silos: (Concept of A, not a role.) This is a term I first heard used by a colleague who was COO for an important insurance. The silos are usually a time limit for agricultural structures tall cylindrical storage which take deposits of wheat. Basically, vertical cylinders giants. This makes them a wonderful description of quant0 IT organization 'work by various departments s. Facilities vertical autonomous. Reporting up – but not obliquely. Communication with other silos happens via an entity or a role that sits above them. This is not helpful – but it is very common. IOC: Taking non-technical. Head of the business of IT department. Probably an MBA. Sometimes had some technical training. They can start their career as a technical assistant, but that was long ago and what have known once are long obsolete. How could it be the contrary? The technology changes so fast that as soon as a technical assistant take the responsibility of the budget – will depend very quickly mainly by technical skills of their direct relations. This would lead to an assumption that their direct relations have technical skills – which is usually not the case. Vice president: VP and the Director may perform the same role in the format of the organization. (in Europe, the vice president is more often a title equivalent to "Lead" role in the United States.) Often there are VP 'different; s for different areas of IT world as a VP of infrastructure or support — or some other "silo." It's as often as a non-technical role. Director (or other Senior Manager): Possibly technical – but typically not. It may once have a "departmental; silo" set of skills. However, it can never be technical at all. Even people essentially over, projects and possibly estimates. It should be clear that this role has the wide range of technical assistance for non-technical people. Some are highly – technical, but it is not the norm. Head of Central He run a department as the team network, the team's, the team development, etc.
