It’s An App World After All

It’s An App World After All

March 19, 2013

Mobility is changing our world.  People are connected to wireless networks all the time, and we’re starting to take it for granted. In 2011, when I visited Ghana, I learned that adults were  using cell phones to do money exchanges and teens were  playing games in their feature (non-smart) phones all the time. I realized that apps have entered into people’s daily lives universally, even in a developing community....
Cloud Theres A Reason For The Rush

Cloud: There’s A Reason For The Rush

February 15, 2013

It's hard to believe, but many of the technologies we now find indispensable took a long time to catch on. I ran across this chart with some interesting examples. It took 40 years for refrigerators to reach most U.S. households, 30 years for color televisions, and 55 years for air conditioners. Makes you wonder how people did without....
Raising the Bar On Cloud The Network Matters

Raising the Bar On Cloud: The Network Matters

February 11, 2013

Ironman triathletes are amazing to me.  I cannot imagine running a full marathon after swimming 2.4 miles and biking 112.  But having run a half marathon last year, I can see how people look for the next challenge, to push themselves to the next level and raise the bar on what’s already been done. I’m fairly new to the world of cloud, but it seems more and more businesses are...
It’s Time for Intrapreneurs To Lead Change From Inside The Company

It’s Time for Intrapreneurs To Lead Change From Inside The Company

January 23, 2013

Risk aversion. These are words that haunt organizations around the world, for better or for worse. While many are risk averse, some are also risk takers. Wherever you reside, your position is often the product of the vision, philosophy, and executive leadership that breathes life into (or takes away from) culture.  It is this direction that ultimately governs the construction or deconstruction of the guardrails that separate risk and...

4 Ways To Ride The Wave Of Big Data Successfully

4 Ways To Ride The Wave Of Big Data Successfully

November 29, 2012

Grab a life preserver, because you’re about to be drowning in data. The continued growth of “Big Data,” especially through machine-to-machine (M2M) solutions, is giving businesses a lot more insight into what’s going on out there. It allows enterprises to track the behavior of customers and assets—industrial equipment, point-of-sale systems, energy meters, vehicle fleets, healthcare monitors, you name it—in amazing detail....
Foiling The Modern-Day Bonnie and Clyde

Foiling The Modern-Day Bonnie And Clyde

November 26, 2012

When asked why he decided to become a bank robber, Willie Sutton supposedly said “because that’s where the money is.” And, in the 1950s, the statement (whether or not it’s attributable to Sutton) was certainly true. It’s also true that things have changed significantly in the last half century. Breaking into a bank vault might still result in a windfall for a criminal, but a great deal of commercial activity now lives in...
Your Employees Are Your New Consumers

Your Employees Are Your New Consumers

November 19, 2012

With all of the discussions around social media and how it improves the opportunity to engage customers and build more meaningful relationships, we tend to lose sight of another important group -- employees. As technology impacts behavior and connects customers and businesses in new ways, the same is true for employees. With every new social and mobile network, every new smart device, and the materialization of trend after trend, people...

You Can Get There from Here: The Road To Better Healthcare

November 5, 2012

When ForHealth was formed in 2010, healthcare in the United States was heading in a new direction.  Innovation was the buzz word and the terms “cloud” and “ACOs” were trending. Meaningful use was being drafted, mobile health was beginning to inspire developers, and the Affordable Care Act had just been passed.  AT&T spent much of 2010...

Why Jump on the Voice Transformation Bandwagon?

August 23, 2012

Voice transformation is more than switching out phones and adding instant messaging to your organization’s communications tools. It’s time savings, collaboration, empowerment of mobile workers and, possibly most important, potential cost savings....

MPLS IP VPNs Answer Call of Global Collaboration

July 18, 2012

Globalization is transforming the way we work. Our teams need to collaborate easily, fast and in a range of ways. Cue a seismic shift in the networking technologies companies are using. Employees want real-time, reliable ways of working together – often sharing data or visually working with each other as much as collaborating over the phone or using email and other written media....
