China's IT software industry middle-level technology managers lack

Zheng, general Manager of Education Division, Beijing Beyondsoft Technology Development Co., Ltd., said that any software enterprise needs three kinds of talents: the first type is to know the technology, industry knowledge and management of software senior talent, namely "software gold collar"; The second category is system analysis and designers, called software engineers, "software white-collar" The third category is skilled workers or basic programmers, or "software blue collars", who can skillfully program. At present, it enterprise software blue collar is very scarce, not only the development of China's software industry "soft rib", but also the world's software industry common challenges, whether in the world's largest independent software company Microsoft, or India's software industry, talent composition is a pyramid structure.

But for the well-known domestic outsourcing companies like Beyondsoft, their biggest headache now is the lack of good project managers and the lack of excellent middle-level technology managers. He even reluctantly said that the shortage of project managers and excellent middle-level technology managers would severely limit the scale and speed of development of China's software outsourcing enterprises.

This kind of person, first of all emphasize the strong technical ability, the technical ability includes the foreign language ability, the proficiency uses the tool the ability. The second is the soft skills that a manager needs, such as good communication and communication skills, organizational skills, coordination ability, team leadership and management skills, customer maintenance and management capabilities, etc., and the ability to communicate more emphasis on how to communicate and communicate effectively within a cross-cultural project group.
