For Information, Communication and Technology professionals the move from specialist to strategist, is far from straight-forward. Technical expertise provides a solid career footing, but leadership demands a dynamic and finely-tuned set of skills shaping a first-rate communicator, influencer and strategic business partner.

Recent years have seen a greater evolution of the traditional control responsibilities of technology functions, with leaders operating in and as agents of organisational change, improving business efficiencies, agility and culture. These new frontiers of leadership bring great possibility and even greater challenges, and for women in ICT there are still more challenges to overcome. Despite a much healthier representation in less senior technology roles, the gender gap remains markedly wide.
