Recently I was checking out some posts on a well known social media site, now I want to point out I am not an avid contributor or viewer of social media content, however, occasionally my space gets invaded by an avalanche of notifications that somehow irrevocably draw me in. I couldn’t help but notice the pervasive virus of posters who photograph meals they are about to eat and underline it with ‘Yum’. Whilst this is not exactly a crime against humanity, humanity on the...

Project Governance is a crucial component of program success. Given a majority of the population are engrossed in the plotlines of Game Of Thrones (GOT), I thought I would frame this conversation accordingly. You have noticed on GOT that disputes on territory, loyalty, and ownership tend to end poorly. Very poorly indeed. In fact, if you are of a highly-sensitive disposition this can be very hard to watch. Without a doubt, if you are not careful as a cast member in GOT...

Today’s economy is one of “short-term gratification,” Hurd said, driving many companies to cut costs—particularly in IT—as a means of compensating for slowing revenue growth. Cutbacks in corporate IT spending also mean companies are stuck with an aged and brittle legacy environment. “Pre-search, pre-mobile, pre-everything we know is when most of these applications were built,” Hurd pointed out. It all adds up to an “incredible need for innovation, very old infrastructure, and...

Fashion retailers have to be where their customers are at every point in the shopping journey. It’s all about direct retailing — in-app, on Pinterest and FaceBook, from the website or inside the store — the exact point where each unique shopper makes her (or his) purchase decisions. Furthermore, when merchants show up at the right direct retailing point, they have to be there with fresh looks and engaging brand experiences. This requires a modern planning solution, which...

In the demanding world of retail, the CIO faces a delicate balancing act between maintaining smooth operations and innovating to meet consumer demand. By Jeff Warren, Vice President, Oracle Retail A few years ago, retailers spent a lot of time talking about the challenge of multichannel operations: how to provide the same merchandise and the same level of customer experience online as in the store. Then the use of smart phones exploded, adding in effect a third channel,...
