The Leadership Challenge for IT Executives
I understand that today's IT leaders face the complex challenge of simultaneously driving business transformation while managing unprecedented technical risks and competing for scarce talent. I recognize that success requires not just technical excellence but the ability to manage cross-functional value creation as well as make strategic trade-offs between innovation velocity and operational stability all while transforming technology investments into measurable business outcomes. With over a decade of experience in recruiting, I help professionals and leaders take the next step in their careers.
My goal is to build meaningful connections that create real value and lay the foundation for long-term growth. Today I am proud to be a Director of Michael Illert Executive Recruitment and share this passion with an incredible team spread across the Benelux and DACH region. From here we serve our clients across Europe and the UK. While we believe in leveraging the latest technology, we hold one fundamental principle at heart: human connection and understanding will always be at the core of executive search.

Where technology once merely supported business operations, it now serves as the fundamental business enabler. Moreover, IT is developing into an innovation catalyst that marks the critical distinction between organizations that merely survive digital disruption and those that drive competitive advantage with it. Technology teams will no longer wait for business requirements; they identify possibilities that business leaders haven't yet imagined. Business IT roles are critical in this context as they combine technical expertise and commercial acumen required to translate these technological possibilities into corporate value. We believe they serve as the architects who transform IT from a function that enables business into a capability that defines it.
