So It Seems There’s A New BAU
Business As Unusual

15. 15
Why Is it Business As Unusual?
• Digital Convergence and Disruptive Technologies are creating a Business As
Unusual reality in buyer behaviour, transactions and expectations
• For business enterprises the New BAU is either an Opportunity or a Threat
• For most CIOs the pressure to rapidly align to the New BAU is an additional
challenge to their Old BAU tasks and responsibilities
• This is especially true in mid-market enterprises where the availability of
adequate IT resources, budgets and skill-sets can create serious constraints
