Bask Iyer, CIO and Executive Vice-President of Dell and VMware, has sounded a warning for information technology (IT) employees: surf the oncoming technology waves all the time and upskill yourself, otherwise be prepared to leave IT. "I am making sure that all my IT folks are best equipped to generate revenues rather than lay them off. "The need of the hour is to upskill—ride the right technology waves, change and shift with the oncoming technology waves, much like surfing. New technology requires reskiling, and employees incapable of reskilling will be fired.In India, this challenge becomes bigger. The employees who upskill themselves stay relevant in the industry.
