Welcome to the challenging world of IT management. As you may have already experienced, it's a whole new ball game compared to resolving individual IT issues through tickets. While your technical skills are valuable assets, being a manager demands much more – the ability to envision the big picture, anticipate potential issues long before they arise, and adapt to the ever-evolving IT landscape. To excel in this role, you'll need reliable resources to stay updated with the latest industry trends. Each issue will be unique, and project deadlines will always feel too short.
As an MSP (Managed Service Provider), we knew that to truly earn the trust of the IT managers we work with, we had to bring them true value - we decided to put the information they needed at their fingertips. To achieve this, we made it a challenge to truly comprehend their pain points by asking relevant questions and actively listening to their concerns. Surprisingly, we discovered a common thread among them all, with only slight variations in their challenges. With all their frustration on hand, we created the EGT Empowerment Center.
