A list of radical actions

With multinationals facing daunting challenges in all markets, now is the time to take radical action. Enlightened organisations are seizing the opportunity to buck the global trend during the current crisis and increase market share by transforming their computing and network platforms. With many organisations currently hamstrung by hundreds, if not thousands, of disparate systems, there’s never been a better time to take an alternative approach to delivering enterprise class applications.

This paper brings together a list of radical ideas from Jack Hidary from BT Global Service's advisory board community. The list ranges from cloud computing to "self-help" CRM, and the paper argues that there is no better time than the present to write-down all that cumbersome and complex 20th century IT architecture, and transform your enterprise for the lean, mean and green 21st century.
