Crisis
demand from RU to UA demand from BY to UA
IT profile becomes more complex
UA IT export is growing in spite of crises
it produces more usual talents
than full stack business eneblers
lack of differentiators
for handling real crisis

Ways to change people mindset
Top talents should
produce real successors
Investing resources to
continuous education
framework (t-shaping)
Make business needs as a
part of regular engineer
via transcription
New SME should have
interface to apply
their skills
Network and culture
complement any
management model
Support people to go
through any crisis
and become more
mature for future
