Enhance and accelerate your path to digital innovation and transformation with IBM Cloud. Develop a roadmap to get started with cloud and incorporate best practices from other organizations just like yours.
A cloud revolution is brewing, and it promises to radically transform the way we compete, collaborate, and consume business services. Indeed, in an economy as volatile and hypercompetitive as today’s, the cloud’s potent mix of simplicity, security, faster innovation, and lower operating costs is proving increasingly attractive. For many businesses—small, medium, and large—the time to adopt this game-changing approach is now.
Achieve Economic Synergies by Managing Your Enterprise Assets In The CloudDr. HJ Raza, Ph.D/MBA
Time to market and rapid response to market demands are now utmost priorities for any size organization. When compared to conventional internal infrastructure, Cloud-based solutions meet this requirement better than ever. Cloud-based solutions are easy to implement, more cost efficient, and robust enough to meet enterprise demands such as auto-scalability, disaster recovery, and fail-over.
Cloud computing is a pay-per-use model enabling convenient, on-demand network access to shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, services, storage, applications and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.

It has a reputation for delivering economies of scale, reducing overheads and driving increased efficiencies within organisations. However, the reality is that, like any IT procurement, implementing a cloud computing solution for your business still requires careful planning, effective project management, robust contracts and sound oversight.

Deep Listening - Impact beyond words - Intranets 2017 SydneyOscar Trimboli
Over 55% of your day is spent listening; yet only 2% of us have been trained in how to listen.
What is poor listening costing you?
Do you rush from meeting to meeting, your head buried in the last conversation you had, without time to think of the next?
Or feel frustrated with unproductive everyday discussions where the loudest in the room adds limited insight and drowns out everyone else?
We usually think of these situations as communication problems; that we have not spoken our needs correctly or clearly.
Yet, conflict, chaos and confusion are the costs of not listening.
Many communication and listening books say the most important person in a conversation is the speaker – not true!
This presentation will help you to reconnect with your innate
gift of deep listening, to create the right space to listen to yourself before you listen to others.
You’ll learn to listen beyond the words that are spoken, to add
context and meaning and listen in to what’s not being said.
Deep Listening will help you move from confusion and conflict to thoughtful, insightful and powerful discussions that will transform not just your work, but your whole life.
Learn about the 125/400 Rule - the maths and science of why listening is so hard

Effects Of Networking On Career Success by Hans-Georg Wolff & Klaus Moser of ...Oscar Trimboli
Effects Of Networking On Career Success by Hans-Georg Wolff & Klaus Moser of University of Erlangen-Nuremberg
Previous research has reported effects of networking, defined as building, maintaining, and using relationships, on career success. However, empirical studies have exclusively relied upon concurrent or retrospective designs that rest upon strong assumptions on the causal direction of this relation and also depict a static snapshot of the relation at a given point in time.
This study provides a dynamic
perspective of the effects of networking on career success and reports results of a longitudinal study.
Networking was assessed by six subscales that result from combining the facets of 1) internal vs. external networking and 2) building vs. maintaining vs. using contacts. Objective (salary) and subjective (career satisfaction) measures of career success were obtained for three consecutive years.
Multilevel analyses show that networking is related to concurrent salary and moreover, that it is
related to the growth rate of salary over time. Networking is also related to concurrent career
satisfaction. As satisfaction remained stable over time, no effects of networking on the growth of career satisfaction were found.

Editor's Notes
This is a lot of change to consider but there is yet another disruptive dimension as well – we mentioned the increase in mobile computing users – among humans, but we also need to recognize that in terms of overall computing and communications volume, there is a major transformation taking place related to the rise of virtualization, smart meters and embedded computing. The numbers you can see on this slide – which are estimates for 2010 are pretty staggering. (read a couple of data points)But it is the one on the bottom right hand corner you really need to consider – 7 billion communicating devices and 5 billion are not computers
We expect many organizations will end up with hybrid environments where they opt to use public services for some functions, where the public nature and global reach of the business make sense, but will rely on internal private cloud architectures for critical business activities.
Definition: Subscription to and usage of Cloud Services that are delivered over a virtual private network, where a private instance of the service is based on a common virtual infrastructure model, and wherein an integrated SLA with business relevant metrics is offered.Building blocks of the evolutionary component of the cloud + disruptive attributes
The hosting business is being transformed by cloud computing, new entrants can offer attractive new services and the market continues to evolve.Cloud impacts the economics of model of hosting in key ways:more difficult capacity management and potentially lower returns on invested capital;challenges in analyzing deal profitability and a shift in how to achieve good margins in managed hosting;uncertain software licensing costs; andincreased unpredictability of revenue.Service providers must determine how to meet the new technical and business challenges, identify the products that can be sold now, market successfully to early adopters, and create a foundation for future products and mainstream adoption.New offerings are emerging to compete with traditional hosting services, eg: utility hosting, virtual data center hosting, cloud hosting, and platform as a service (PaaS).The initial challenges of cloud evolution are centered on installation and provisioning. These are business challenges, not just technical challenges, requiring process and system integration across the service provider organization.The early adopters of cloud infrastructure services are existing hosting customers, Web 2.0 startups, research organizations and Type "A" enterprises. Mainstream adoption will require decreasing the real and perceived risks of moving operations into the cloud.RecommendationsFocus on fully automating sales quotes and provisioning, and driving down quote and installation times. Immediately offer utility hosting. Even if you are not prepared to offer a virtualized platform, you must offer flexible pricing, or you will be at a severe competitive disadvantage.If you do not have virtualization expertise, consider acquiring a small provider of cloud hosting services with strong engineering expertise and tools for managing a shared, virtualized platform.Include complementary network services that enhance remotely hosted services, such as WAN optimization or an application delivery network.
