Finding Balance in an Always-On Job
Being in IT is already a job that can take its toll, with always-on hours and constant notifications, it can be a heavy mental load. And when it comes to IT leadership, the responsibilities pile up even more. You now maintain responsibility over an infrastructure that needs to stay on, you interact with every part of the business, and you have to manage the careers of direct reports on your team. All of that can add up to more hours than you have in a day.
