New Cloud Services are Foundational to Gaining Control Over Content

My next-door neighbor has a two-car garage and a large shed in the backyard. In the twenty-plus years we have lived next door, they have yet to park a single car in their garage. The garage is overflowing with all manner of yard equipment, winter tires, retired exercise equipment, and the odd piece of furniture. The shed is also packed. They own a snowblower, I often lend them ours because they can’t access their own. Unfortunately, many organizations handle file management in a similar fashion. (more)

Seeking the truth in an information-saturated world

We live in an increasingly information-saturated, plugged-in world. Long gone are the days where an entire family gathers around the only television in the house to watch the 6 o’clock news. Between our 24-hour news cycle, constant push notifications on our phones and tablets, and the ever-growing presence of social media, information overload is, like it or not, part of our day-to-day lives.

As business leaders, it is important to be able to cut through the noise and have a good system in place to decide who to listen to and who to tune out. (more)
