"The "Revitalise IT" scheme will aim "to transform the attitudes of young people to IT-related education and careers..."

it isn't young people who need their attitudes to IT related education and careers transforming

it's the bean counting employers who perceive IT staff as disposable items to be hired and fired as necessary, payed as little as possible when employed and generally not regarded as valuable assets, that need their attitudes transforming

if you don't understand what your staff do then you are in the wrong job and you shouldn't be telling them how to do theirs
