ZDNet Australia takes a look at some advice, strategies and problems currently facing IT managers.
Keep employees on track
What's the best way to deal with an employee who lacks time management skills or doesn't live up to his or her potential? Prioritisation training may be the answer to both questions.
A model for IT cost management
Although most CIOs strive to shift the focus on IT costs to one of business value, they realise that ongoing cost management is crucial to IT operation.
Speaking out: Always possible?
So you've been asked to do something you heartily disagree with. You know it's not going to work because you have the expertise the big guys don't. How do you get your point across without ruining your prospects?
Dealing with marginal project team performers
If you have a team member who isn't performing at the level you would like, blame it on the fact that you have a range of personalities on your team.
Tactics for the time-pressed manager
If you're doing eight hours of work in 12 hours instead of 12 hours of work in eight, it's time to change your time-management mindset.
Stop team war
When an employee refuses to be a team player or always shows up late for work, your other team members will resent it--and you'll have to deal with the fallout. We offer guidance on these two issues.
