John Myers

Hey all-

Welcome to my blog. The fine folks at the BeyeNETWORK™ have provided me with this forum to offer opinion and insight into the worlds of telcommunications (telecom) and business activity monitoring (BAM). But as with any blog, I am sure that we (yes we... since blogging is a "team sport"...) will explore other tangents that intersect the concepts of telecom and BAM.

In this world of "Crossfire" intellectual engagement (i.e. I yell louder therefore I win the argument), I will try to offer my opinion in a constructive manner. If I truly dislike a concept, I will do my best to offer an alternative as opposed to simply attempting to prove my point by disproving someone else's. I ask that people who post to this blog follow in my lead.

Let the games begin....

At the TDWI Las Vegas show this week, one of the featured topics is "business analytics". This is the linking of your strategy to your data and back again ( ... yeah i just noticed the "frodo" reference... it was not intended... ).

I believe that this is an under appreciated area since too many organizations, and telecommunications organizations in particular, segment or compartmentalize their strategy from their data and vice versa.

I attended the education session with Nancy Williams and Bob Paladino that flows into their keynote address. They do a great job of showing how to link from one "buzzword" discipline ( ... i'm sure that kaplan and norton really appreciate me describing balanced scorecards as a "buzzword discipline"... ) with another - business intelligence.

I would recommend taking sessions from either at future TDWI Conferences like the upcoming Chicago conference in May.
