Why Are Australian Business Leaders Seeking Out IT Business Advisors?
Every week it seems that we hear about a company that has experienced a data breach, but it’s not only cybersecurity issues that are a concern for business leaders across the nation. As companies become more dependent upon always-on technology, nearly every decision is related to technology in one way or another.
That’s why IT Business Advisory is one of the fastest growing sectors of the IT support industry, and a service sought out by company executives.
What Does an IT Advisor Do?
CEOs and C-level executives need real-time access to advice and information that will shape their decisions. In larger corporations, the C-level IT specialist that provides this information is the CIO. Unfortunately, the executives of small and mid-size companies that can’t afford the salary of a technology executive miss out on these insights.
That’s why I.T. how to has developed an outsourced Business IT Advisory offering.
Our outsourced Business IT Advisors provide the following services to CEOs and members of their executive.

Because nearly every decision of modern business has an element of technology. A forward-looking executive recognises this truth and seeks out boardroom-level IT advice.
