The EMF is an independent (downtown) Boston-based think tank, whose sole mission is to evangelize best practices in terms of how organizations can reap the greatest benefits from deploying [...] Lessons Learned In Enterprise Mobility in Retail
This was, admittedly, a rather disappointing weekend. No no…I’m not talking about the emotionally crushing defeat that my beloved New England Patriots suffered yesterday in Superbowl XLVI. I’m talking instead about a visit I made to a “Big Box” retail store. I went to that store looking at kitchen appliances.

It’s also a great time to reflect on what has taken place in the last 12 months. Maybe I’m just getting [...] The Cure For The BYOD Blues?
Just under 15,000. That’s the number of miles United Airlines tells me I have traveled in the last 2 1/2 weeks. Not the best excuse, but really the only one I have for not having shared any missives with you on a regular basis during this time period. Miracle of miracles, I am not traveling [...] Pitch Fest Slides From the 2011 Enterprise Mobility Boot Camp
