The Five Types of Technologist
Today’s technologists are determined, motivated and excited about the unique opportunity they have to deliver innovation and change within their organizations and to shape a better future for all.
The Agents of Transformation study identifies five typologies of technologist, all of which have an important role to play in driving innovation and digital transformation programmes.
Agents of Transformation
Agents of Transformation possess the skills, ambition and vision required to drive innovation. They work within organizations that have the culture, leadership and tools that enable successful digital transformation.
Agents of Transformation operate at the forefront of transformation initiatives but they never stand still. They recognize the need for continuous improvement and learning in order to fulfil their organizational and personal ambitions.
Digital Pioneers
Digital Pioneers have an optimistic and collaborative mindset and possesses many of the skills required to drive change.
Digital Pioneers usually work within forward-thinking organizations that are open to innovation, but they can sometimes be hampered by not having the right structures and processes in place, or not having access – at their moment of need – to the tools and insights around digital services, to deliver results.
Untapped Heroes
Untapped Heroes are the engine room of the IT department – task-driven technologists who use the tools at his or her disposal to deliver the high-quality work that the organization relies on.
Untapped Heroes work within organizations that provide the culture and leadership required to stimulate innovation. They have much of the data needed to drive change, but require the skills and vision to turn this into contextual, actionable insight.
Frustrated Innovators
Frustrated Innovators possess most of the skills and character attributes to drive innovation but are hampered by the organizational environment in which he or she operates.
Frustrated Innovators are ambitious about their own career development and want to make a positive difference, but are working within organizations that do not have leadership, culture, tools or data to enable innovation.
Disillusioned Dreamers
Disillusioned Dreamers are the dependable employees of the IT department, working hard every day to keep systems up and running and limit the impact of potential IT issues. He or she has little opportunity to get involved in more strategic, innovation-focused projects.
Disillusioned Dreamers feel unsure about their own skills and abilities to become drivers of change.
