The 2008 study addresses the following questions, among others:&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;	&lt;li&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;How significant a transition in leadership positions are we likely to see in the next few years?&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/li&gt;	&lt;li&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;How confident are IT leaders in their skills, and how effective are their leadership styles?&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/li&gt;	&lt;li&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;How is the position of IT leader viewed by those who might aspire to it?&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/acronym&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;&lt;acronym&gt;The full study is available to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.educause.edu/ECARSubscribingOrganizations/957&quot;&gt;ECAR subscribers&lt;/a&gt; and through purchase; however, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://connect.educause.edu/Library/ECAR/LeadingtheITWorkforceinHi/47280&quot;&gt;road map&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://connect.educause.edu/Library/ECAR/LeadingtheITWorkforceinHi/47279&quot;&gt;key findings&lt;/a&gt; are publicly available.
