- What characteristic is most important to you in an IT hire?
- Technical competence with a business understanding. I look for technical experts who can clearly articulate technology's value proposition to the business.
- What's the most important task you've delegated this year?
- I've delegated direct operational oversight to our operational director, a newly created role.
