What is Missing From Enterprise Mobility Management?
Did you know that this year, we will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of the first BlackBerry smartphone? That’s right — white collar enterprise mobility will, for all intents and purposes, be celebrating its 10th anniversary. While in the grand scheme of things, 10 years is not a very long time, no one can disagree [...] Reflecting On Enterprise Mobility in 2012
I must admit that I have been procrastinating on writing this particular post. In fact, I have been procrastinating for weeks on this. I had wanted to do it at the end of the year, but stuff happened. Then, I wanted to do it at the very beginning of the year…and guess what? Stuff happened. [...] What CES SHOULD Say About Wearable Devices (But Probably Won’t)
Coming up to CES this week, one of the big themes discussed is around having wearable computers. There has been speculation about the announcement of smart watches and smart glasses like Google Glass. InsideFMM even asked “when will wearable computers become fashionable?” To me, there are several interesting aspects to this question: Reinventing the past, [...] Five Predictions for Enterprise Mobility in 2013
This Executive Insight covers five of the most important trends that The Enterprise Mobility Foundation believes will define mobility within the workplace in 2013.

Side note: doesn’t that sound a lot like Thanksgiving Friday? Three sentences in and I [...] The 5 Lies of BYOD
Last month, I said that BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) will decline as enterprise mobility grows up (see link here) and got the following responses: Don’t Bet On It Not quite yet As well as some more interesting and less accurate headlines such as: Will BYOD matter in 2013? Nucleus predicts BYOD to be a [...] Can a Lease Solve Many Of Today’s Challenges In Enteprise Mobility?
It’s a little frightening (perhaps depressing) when I think about the fact that my being home these last four days, has been the longest period of time I have been home in two months. Oh well. As we get ready for an abbreviated week here in the United States as we celebrate Thanksgiving, I wanted [...] Thinking About Enterprise Mobility? App-Solutely!
Hello from beautifully sunny San Diego where CTIA is holding its newly branded MobileCon event. While today is the official kick-off of the event, I had the opportunity yesterday to attend the App-Solutely Enterprise event that was part of the pre-conference track. This was the 2nd time my good friends at 151 Advisors held this [...] Let Them Eat (BYOD) Cake
I’ve said this more times than I can count, but it never ceases to amaze me how there continues to be deep confusion and an equal number of challenges as organizations go about enabling their employees to bring their own devices to the workplace. In certain instances, there will be a natural inclination to point [...] iPhone Is The New Blackberry
One of the most interesting shifts in enterprise mobility over the past couple of years is the development of a new type of mobility environment built around a single device.
