Your Challenge

  • With the aging IT “boomer” workforce approaching retirement in the next 5-10 years, organizations are faced with the prospect of losing the only employees in the organization with the knowledge for maintaining legacy systems.
  • IT leaders must find a way to encourage these workers to stay past retirement, or capture that knowledge and wisdom before they leave, transferring it to other workers to ensure the institutional knowledge is not lost.
