80% believe tomorrow's workforce must have more business-savvy IT professionals and more IT-savvy business professionals to survive

LONDON, Nov. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- IT leaders feel they now have a seat at the table in terms of business decision-making but their ability to drive business agility could be short-lived, according to a new study from Appian (Nasdaq: APPN). Eight in ten (79%) UK developers say their organisation is already shifting focus away from innovation projects and towards cost-cutting initiatives, which could halt the momentum achieved in quickly rolling out new technologies and solutions during the Covid pandemic. This could have damaging implications for business growth and technological transformation at a time when agility and new ideas should be encouraged.
