While working on the Business Gets Social scenario for fall symposium, I explored two critical uncertainties: how organizations will allocate resources and how work will be executed. During this exploration, it became evident [...]

Is was my first attendance at one of these events and I quite enjoyed talking with so many people who were so committed to the successful execution of the organization’s critical initiatives.

For instance, the need [...]

I spent a delightful day at the MIT Sloan CIO Symposium (#MITCIO) last week. It was delightful because I had the luxury of listening to a roster of informative speakers discussing a wide variety of issues ranging from cloud (of course!) to analytics.

I’ve just returned from the co-located Portals, Content & Collaboration and the Customer 360 Summits. We were encouraged the significant increase in attendance.

Awhile back, I heard an interview with a well-known band. They described the challenge of road trips were they went from city to city, often with very little done time in between shows.
