IT employment keeps inching upward — not by much, but at least it hasn’t dropped since March, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Then again, we’ve all heard the Gartner predictions that IT shops will shrink by one-third in the first decade of the 21st century. And we’ve all watched that happening in recent years. It’s no trivial question. Who will survive in IT — and how can you be one of the survivors? Simple answer: It’s about value. Convince your boss that you’re really too valuable to the business to let go, and you will survive. And how do you do that? The industry deep-thinkers will say tha...
