With the best and brightest ready to bolt, CFOs will have to step lively if they hope to retain their top talent. Alix Stuart, CFO Magazine February 1, 2010
Many finance executives are keen to boost staff morale, but few can rival Clyde Hosein's creative — and potentially humiliating — effort. Last December, the CFO of Marvell Technology Group strutted his stuff, literally. Inspired by the choreographed "mob dance" that a Chicago crowd performed with the band Black-Eyed Peas on The Oprah Winfrey Show last September, Hosein took the stage at the finance department's year-end meeting and performed what he describes as a "funky '70s thing" in front of more than 200 employees.

February 2, 2010 (CIO) Recently I was able to sit down for a discussion with Sunny Gupta, co-founder and CEO of Apptio, a provider of on-demand IT financial management SaaS (software-as-a-service) products.
Apptio's IT financial- management package is intended to provide greater visibility into the TCO (true cost of ownership) of IT products and services. The desired result is so that businesses can identify ways to reduce IT costs and Apptio contends, making better decisions and providing the business with a more accurate reflection of true IT cost.

Identify and eliminate IT waste and identify opportunities for smart investments. (Logicalis: Bloomfield Hills, MI) -- Logicalis, an international leader in high performance technology solutions, has identified several “Lean IT” practices which help businesses eliminate information technology (IT) waste and trim their IT “waste lines.” Lean IT is a set of practices for identifying and eliminating waste throughout a company’s IT environment. Logicalis emphasizes that these key areas of IT waste exist in nearly every IT environment and take on a number of different forms: hardware infrastructure that takes up too much energy while underperforming, disparate systems replicating processes, and human resources being overworked or outmatched. IT waste is essentially any and every aspect of a business’ IT environment that is not functioning efficiently and cost effectively. |

By Sumantra Sengupta -- Supply Chain Management Review, 5/1/2009 Innovation is the lifeblood of all companies. This could be in the form of new products, services or even new operating models. In the absence of innovation, a company will face the certain “death by commoditization” effect over a period of time. Yet where the supply chain is concerned, innovation seems to be lacking in all too many cases. It is rare to find an organization thinking about—let alone investing in—supply chain innovation. However, they will readily spend hundreds of millions of dollars on product and service innovation. Why is this the case? Why does investment in supply chain process innovation lag so far behind the growth and strategic importance of the function? To find some answers, I revisited an article that I wrote for Supply Chain Management Review in 2004 titled “The Top Ten Supply Chain Mistakes.” Five years later, it's evident that many companies across industries are still making those mistakes. They remain slow to adopt even basic best practices to leverage the supply chain's power. So if they are still struggling with the fundamentals, it's not surprising that they haven't given much thought to innovation. |
