Funding Strategic Initiatives for 2008
Sunil Misra, Vice President, Consulting and Transformation Services

Live From Your Desktop … Your Next Meeting!
Christine Carr, Manager, Marketing Communications

The Business of Unified Communications
Tim Welsh, Practice Director, Unified Communications
Jack Welch knows something about globalization. In business, “globalization” refers, in part, to maximizing the free movement of people, capital, and services. During his tenure at General Electric, Welch observed that, “globalization has changed us into a company that searches the world, not just to sell or to source, but to find intellectual capital — the world's best talents and greatest ideas.” [1] Perhaps no challenge facing Chief Information Officers (CIOs) today is more daunting than how to bring the best ideas and talent together.

Welcome
|
Welcome to your third installment of The Workspace Wire. If your business runs on the calendar year, you've likely been busy with budgets — balancing the things you have to keep doing while looking to prioritize your discretionary spend into new projects and innovations. We devote this issue to creating foundations for innovation.
Experience shows us, and business experts remind us, that innovation comes in all shapes and sizes. It's not only the new business venture or the biggest project. More often, innovation is linked to the very things we do every day. In many cases, the greatest amount of untapped potential resides in the daily activities that roll-up to our ongoing operations — the largest portion of our budgets.
This issue focuses on finding opportunities to innovate and creating a culture for positive change along the themes of identifying opportunities, thinking differently, and communicating better.
