About Gartner Analysts:

Gartner Analysts are industry thought leaders who create must-have research, market predictions and best practices for a broad range of world-leading organizations. A Senior Director Analyst leverages their experience and dives deep into research and analysis of data to develop strategies that help clients solve problems and improve their company’s performance.
