How to become a Member of the Board of Directors?

How to become a Member of the Board of Directors?

This is a pertinent question for many ambitious people across the world. Yet few find the right answer and much less use that valuable information to become a Board Member.

If the real goal of asking this question is not to become a board member then any time spent on the question is purely academic in nature.

Moreover, if somebody simply wants to attend a board of directors meeting then that is a separate discussion.

Here I am putting my perspective on becoming a board member.

Design Thinking: How to Nurture Future Leaders

Scott Palmer — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 11:00:00 GMT

Design thinking brings creative techniques to business. The only problem? No one can agree on how to teach its methods.

It's a scary time to be a new graduate. But some seem more optimistic than others.

Around the world, graduates are emerging from interdisciplinary master's programs that integrate design, technology, and business. These professionals are trained in "design thinking." Sure, it's the latest trendy term to sweep the business world, but it's a technique that designers and executives alike hope may help to provide a solution to some of the world's serious challenges.

Cloud Computing and the Promise of On-Demand Business Innovation

Scott Palmer — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 13:00:00 GMT

The wow isn't just about technology; it's about process flexibility and reuse that will enable enterprises to quickly serve new customers and launch new lines of business.

By Peter Fingar

Peter Fingar

We are witnessing a seismic shift in information technology, the kind that comes around every decade or so, and it will have a huge impact on business -- especially in today's economy.

First things first: What the hell is Cloud Computing? Definitions and opinions of cloud computing abound. At one point Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle, declared it to be "complete gibberish" and "insane."

Reasons the enterprise shouldn't adopt cloud computing abound: security, privacy, lack of cost savings, data governance, migration issues, and legal and regulatory issues. Pick your favorite.

Survey Finds BPM Projects Lack Architecture

Scott Palmer — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 14:00:00 GMT

By Jeffrey Schwartz - 07/02/2009

Only 52 percent of organizations classified as leaders have enterprise architecture teams leading their BPM efforts, a Web survey of 135 enterprises, showed. Of those described as followers, only 31 percent had enterprise architects leading the efforts.

Booz Allen Study Finds the World's Leading Corporate Innovators Stepped Up R&D Spending in 2006

Scott Palmer — Tue, 16 Oct 2007 19:00:00 GMT

Rise in R&D expenditures now matches sales growth.

North American headquartered companies led the way with a 13% increase; India & China are rapidly boosting their R&D investment, but their share of total spending remains small.

Customer focus yields performance gains.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Booz Allen Hamilton's (www.boozallen.com) third annual analysis of the world's 1,000 largest corporate R&D spenders, released today, finds that these corporations increased their R&D investment last year by twice the dollar amount of 2005's R&D spending rise. For the first time in four years, the pace of R&D spending in 2006 caught up to the rate of sales growth among these companies. North American headquartered companies led the way with the largest increase in absolute spending; R&D investment in emerging markets continues to grow rapidly, but remains a relatively small percentage of the global total. Toyota was the largest corporate spender on R&D in 2006, up from third place the prior year. Link to Article....

VCG Position Statement

noemail@value-chain.org — Fri, 01 Sep 2006 15:00:00 GMT

PITTSBURGH, September 1, 2006 The Value Chain Group Position Statement The formation of the Value Chain Group (VCG) was driven by the need for a holistic view of business processes across operations, product development, and customer facing domains of an enterprise. VCG calls this framework VCOR. Because this integrated framework covers supply chain processes some may be confused with respect to the relationship of the VCG reference model (VCOR) and the Supply Chain Council (SCC) reference model (SCOR). To clarify any questions, the VCG Board of Directors emphasizes that the VCG and the SCC operate as two independent, not-for-profit organizations separate from one another. The VCG and the SCC have independently developed distinctive reference models, architecture, tools, and methodology that have major differences in scope, scale, structure, and detail.
