Tip 24: Measure and Evaluate Alliance Performance. An airplane is off its course most of the time. Wind, turbulence and air traffic are all factors why an airplane can’t fly in a straight line from Airport A to Airport B.

An airplane only reaches the right destination because of measurements and evaluations of the data acquired, upon which the pilot or the autopilot adjusts the airplane’s course.
What’s your appetite for risk? Sharon always teases me that I’m risk averse, and my haircut hasn’t changed substantially for 10 years. Until a few weeks ago.

Ransomware is just about everywhere these days. A recent study by Positive Technologies looked at the cyber threat landscape during the second quarter of 2021 and found that ransomware attacks reached “stratospheric” levels, accounting for 69% of all malware attacks – that’s a jump of 30 points from the same quarter in 2020. Email remains the main method of spreading malware in attacks against organizations (58%) – although a recent HP study found that number to be
It’s funny how some things that were once familiar have now become novelties. Working in an office and wearing a suit seem quaint and slightly eccentric. Last week we hosted our first in-person workshop since January, and it was a very surreal experience. Aside from wearing heels again (not recommended if you’ve been in runners all year!) it was a pleasure to see people’s reactions up close and sense the vibe in the room.

Of the many strategic planning models that exist, the Blue Ocean Strategy could be considered the pacifist of the group. Based on an eponymously titled book , this strategy argues that “cutthroat competition results in nothing but a bloody red ocean of rivals fighting over a shrinking profit pool.” Companies should instead look for new market space and ways to reinvent the industry.

Can poodles breathe underwater? Why don’t crabs have eyebrows? What does a rainbow taste like? Kids ask the best questions. My 5 year-old neighbour asked his mum, “where do I come from?” She took a deep breath and launched into a detailed lecture on the birds, bees, mum’s tummy etc. A stunned silence ensued. “Oh,” he replied. “George at school says he comes from Greece”.

Tip 23: Make Sure All Stakeholders Are on Board at Alliance Launch. What describes a good start of an alliance?

What’s the first thing you did after lockdown ended? Some people headed straight to the pub. But it wasn’t the lack of booze during lockdown that drove people to queue outside a bar at 8am; it was the opportunity to do it with friends. The long months have taught us a lot about what’s really important. What we’ve craved is companionship, connection and belonging with our co-workers, friends and families.

For some organizations, an innovation program is a “nice-to-have”, sometimes struggling for time and attention against other corporate initiatives.

There have been so many major security incidents in the last year that it’s no wonder the incident response market has taken off.

Next came web application attacks (25%) and system intrusions (20%).
