Re: Silicon Valley roots?
@mpouraryan:

Ofcourse that is undersatndable. And prior to making any moves that pre work of due dilegence is an absokute must and am sure folks very well spend their time and effort in getting all that done. Analysing market trend based on history data as you pointed out in your example with Apple watches is another key aspect. Then get ready with a forecast model using that history data would be an essential tool towards that decsion making.

Re: Silicon Valley roots?
Many thanks @batye--the thing, though, we have to guard against is arrogance.  I was thinking about it today as I saw Vinod Khosa, a co-founder of Sun, asking 30 Million to allow folks access to the Beach.    A sense of humility with an eye to the future has to be the order of the day.

Re: Silicon Valley roots?
@ms.Akkkeini:  No one has a real crystal ball, though.    I was reflecting upon this as I saw some stats from Apple, for instance, about how many Apple Watches has shipped and the growth has been at best, Negligible.   With the economy slowing as noted by the Guardian just within the past 15 minutes, it will be interesting--to say the least.....

Speed and the Cloud
Here again the Cloud is popping up. I think it's safe to ay that the Cloud in't going anywhere and that companies have no choice, but to embrace it. Even though it isn't the most reliable. I was suprised to know that 60% of AT&T in this field is already Cloud based and that their goal is to hit 80%. I had no idea it was that high in the first place.

Also I'm glad to hear that speed is not only important, but a necessity to the company. Speed really is, in my opinion, the biggest factor especially to a lot of customers.

@mpouraryan:

Sometimes it is during downturns that some of the greatest investments are made....


This is the secret that some enterprenurs would like to consider  and reap maximum rewards. One would never get into enterprenurship if there is scare and/or unwillingness towards risk. Risk goes hand in hand here. How well you think ahead and have your mitigation plan in place is the real key.

@batye:  The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.    The dream of coming together and working to transform is something that all must embrace.  That's at the heart of transformation.   As I have underscored, though, as long as the human element is never forgotten.

As I have been catching up on the latest out of Barcelona thanks to the team, we are truly living in interesting times.      The challenge is to harness this in a way that prserves the human element--no matter what.
