Stay professionally fit, always, says San Murugesan as he steps down from his four-year term as editor in chief of our IT Professional magazine.

"This is both an exciting and a challenging time for IT professionals as well as for technology leaders, several industry sectors, and even governments. To succeed and thrive in this dynamic environment, we need to stay professionally fit and relevant not only now, but always. Although staying professionally fit is rewarding and enjoyable, it is also challenging in a few ways. Nevertheless, we need to satisfactorily cope with and address many challenges," he writes.
