Cloud computing, social media, tablet computing … what does it all mean?

Technology is moving at a rapid pace, and has gone from a back-office function to a boardroom concern. IT vendors and technology pundits claim that technologies like these will change the way we do business. At the same time, each news cycle brings another story about a marquee company “losing” key customer data or wasting millions on an ill-conceived social media marketing campaign.
Beneath the marketing hype and technology-laden buzzwords, what is the actual impact of these technologies on a business, and what must board members and executives know to evaluate the relevance, advantages, and risks of these technologies to their businesses?
The Executive Briefing series helps you answer these questions, providing:
- An overview of the technology free of buzzwords and techno-babble, with a brief history of the technology’s development and a focus on its business impact.
- An analysis of the benefits of the technology from a business perspective. What problems does it solve? How can it reduce costs or enhance revenue? What competitive advantage does it provide?
- An assessment of the risks the technology presents, free of “fear and loathing.” What risks are most relevant at the executive and board levels, and how can they be mitigated?
- An individualized discussion about how the technology impacts your company, based on conversations with key executives you select. We go from high-level overview, down to the immediate impacts and relevance to your organization.
- An overview of how you could capitalize on the technology, implementation costs, and associated risks. We’ll discuss if this technology is relevant, and provide an overview of the process involved to get it up and running so you can make an informed decision in the future.
Prevoyance Group does not resell software or hardware, or create “sponsored” research studies, so all executive briefings are presented with your best interests and perspective in mind. This information is easily accessible in a variety of free and paid options, including:
- The free “Executive’s Guide” whitepaper series, the first installment of which is available now for instant download, and covers Cloud Computing.
- A free video series, each video covering an aspect of an emerging technology and presented in easily digestible “chunks” of around five minutes. These videos are available online or on your mobile device, or can also be purchased on DVD or Blu-Ray.
- For the ultimate detailed, personalized experience, Prevoyance Group president Patrick Gray will provide an in-person overview of the technologies you choose. In addition to the overview, Patrick will facilitate a discussion about how these technologies can benefit your organization, and guidance on where to focus your efforts and attention. You can email Patrick directly to discuss and schedule this experience.
