The Irony of Digital Transformation, feat. Dmitriy Sokolovskiy, Audience 1st

Ivanti’s research shows that IT workers are 50% more likely than other office workers to report negative effects from working remotely. They report longer working hours and more tech problems about twice as often as their non-IT colleagues, and nearly one in three say they’ve had colleagues quit due to burnout. 

Could it be that the Everywhere Work revolution — a revolution they played a foundational role in making possible — has placed an impossible burden on IT and InfoSec? 

Dmitriy Sokolovskiy, Lead Instructor and Principal CISO Advisor at Audience 1st, joins host Jeff Abbott to break down what’s causing this massive burnout problem, and more importantly, what we can do about it. 

About the research 

For Ivanti’s Everywhere Work research series, we surveyed 8400 office workers, IT and security professionals and executives to understand attitudes, expectations and challenges facing future-looking talent organizations and their employees as they redefine the time, location and manner of work.
