Good times! In any case, I wanted to share with you something that happened during the CTIA conference this [...] The First Step To “Mobile First”
As I’m sure many of you did, I watched yesterday with great interest the streaming video feed from SAPPHIRE Now, SAP’s annual conference. Of particular interest was the “SAP Mobile Press Conference” that was led by SAP’s Sanjay Poonen. After Sanjay made his formal remarks, he invited some partners and customers to join him in [...] The Religious Side of Enterprise Mobility

I am admittedly a little late in the game in writing this missive, but I put the blame squarely on the newest addition to the Winthrop Clan who has now made sleep a privilege and not a right for me. Watch out world, in a decade (or two), you’ll hopefully hear from yet another rabid [...] The Key To A Successful Enterprise Mobility Strategy: Focus

While I will admit to not having had to clear out a sidewalk, or dig my car out for that matter, that doesn’t preclude me from admitting that I may [...] 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 [...] Five Predictions for Enterprise Mobility in 2013

Organizations are encouraged to consider these predictions – and their associated recommendations – in order to be prepared for the continued proliferation of mobility in the workplace.

Ah, the day after Christmas. In some parts of the world, it’s called Boxing Day. In other parts, it could be considered a day of recovering from too much food…and perhaps even too much time with your family and/or in-laws. 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?
