[MCN-L] IT Department Structure Benchmarking

2014-10-27 Thread Julie Brubaker
Hi MCN!
I'm looking for some quick current data about your Museum's IT Department.
If you have a moment, your response would be much appreciated:

1. How many people work at your Museum?
2. How many people are in the IT Department at your Museum?
3. What are all the titles (or roles/responsibility areas) of the people in
IT at your Museum?
4. Does every IT person have a specific set of responsibilities or are
there a lot of overlapping responsibilities?
5. Who does the head of your IT Department report to?
6. Would you share the name of your Museum?

If this survey has been done before and the data exists somewhere, please
accept my apologies for repeating the questions and point me to the results.

Thank you!
Julie
