Anyone who has worked in this sector is familiar with the unique (and borderline impossible) challenge of trying to keep up with technological innovations while operating on a too-small budget and facing constant criticism for problems outside of your control. Truth from the Trenches passes on the hard-won leadership lessons that seven-time CIO Mark Settle gained during years of working in IT management.
