Making Information Management Matter

We can all appreciate the value of language that allows us to talk to each other. And what's language without a dictionary and rules of grammar that puts it all together so we clearly understand each other. Well information exchanged between computers is no different. You all know that otherwise you probably would not be reading this blog. So lets work this year to eliminate the legacy mindsets and attitudes about industry standards. I'll spend more time talking about the fallacies, attitudes and vested interests that just slow down the pace of what we all know is inevitable. Download Insurance Day

New Book

My latest book presents the challenges members face when adopting industry standards as well as the opportunities that come as a result. It features my discussions with many people over many years and follows the foundation I set in my first book "The Business Information Revolution".

Industry standards are never adopted in a vacuum. They become part and parcel of all the trials and tribulations managers face in their day to day work. ACORD Standards are always part of a larger software development project that brings along people, priorities and politics. Adopting industry standards isn't simple, but the benefits far outweigh the problems of building and maintaining proprietary alternatives.

I trust that you will appreciate my frankness, identify with some of the challenges and learn from what others have done to pave the way.
