ILTA’S 2010 IT STAFFING SURVEY HUGS TO THE DREAM TEAM Surveys of this scope and complexity are never easy, and our volunteer lead, Shirley Crow, Chief Information Officer at Farella Braun + Martel LLP, is to be commended for her steadfastness of purpose and her ability to assemble and lead her “dream team” whose mission was to deliver data to support staffing decisions. She enlisted the help of Joy Heath Rush of Sidley Austin LLP, associate participant Rob O’Rielly and ILTA staffer Deb Himsel. As a team, these good folks reviewed, dissected, assembled, re-dissected, re- assembled, honed and polished the questionnaire; and each was instrumental in reviewing our final product that you’re enjoying. Shirley did much of the heavy lifting in reviewing the results from our data analyst and in writing the narrative summary. It’s been my pleasure to assist this stellar team in providing information that we hope informs and supports your staffing models.
