Managing technology services and operations can be like trying to jockey around road hazards in a vehicle that doesn’t have all the features you need for the drive. Just as your navigation technology helps keep your journey on track, full visibility into IT issues is vital. That’s what automated service operations offers.

The workforce is facing massive disruption. A skills shortage is challenging leaders to rethink their talent strategy. And 81% of workers feel at risk of burning out, according to a study by Mercer. At the same time, employees are reevaluating what they want from work. A lack of flexibility and limited opportunities for advancement are among the top 10 reasons U.S. workers left their jobs in 2021, according to Pew Research.

Managing risk and compliance in telecommunications is no easy feat. When a telecom company operates in underserved remote and rural communities—including hurricane-prone island markets and mountainous regions in the southwestern US—it can be even trickier.
