Content Management Bible

Content Management Bible

As the Information Age dawns, the information at our disposal expands haphazardly. The Content Management Bible answers these key questions about the system readers might employ to control the expansion of information and organize targeting and distribution: What does a system that handles massive amounts of information look like, and how can a single system produce a wide range of well-targeted custom publications from the same information base? How can a system be created that understands each piece of information and how do I transform content to fit the various distribution methods such as web, print, handhelds and others? What are the steps and processes you need to create such a system, and how can this system serve an organization's overall business goals and future initiatives?

It's fast, it's easy, and it's dirt cheap. But for all the advantages of e-mail and the Internet, it's a form of communication that comes at a cost:

They make maintaining and updating the content of a web site easier, giving the content contributors, not just the web team, the means with which to manage their own content.

Enterprise Content Management: Expected Evolution or Vendor Positioning?

Enterprise Content Management: Expected Evolution or Vendor Positioning?

Document management, Web content management, and digital asset management represent the three most prominent categories of information management solutions that are converging into the broader enterprise content management category, at least on the market’s surface. As the market for corporate information and content management has grown, vendors have created new categories to describe their narrowly focused products. While these products have a plethora of differences, they may have more in common than many vendors would like to believe. This overlap is clearly driving a consolidation of vendors and convergence of products as the leading companies in the large Web content and document management categories extend their products through acquisition, integration, and development activity to offer wary customers a more complete solution for managing a broad base of digital asset formats.

Review
You've picked up the right book for just about any goal you have in process management. If you're an enterprise process architect or manager, Harmon tells you what you need to think about and do at the enterprise level. If you are an owner or improver of a particular process, theres an entire section devoted to managing particular processes. If you're charged with using IT to support processes, you are similarly in luck. The book should be on the desk, in the briefcase, or on the bedside table of anyone who believes business processes are an important way to understand businesses and make them better.
From the foreword by Thomas H. Davenport, Director, Process Management Research Center, Babson College

Executing Your Strategy

Executing Your Strategy

Why do businesses consistently fail to execute their competitive strategies? Because leaders don't identify and invest in the full range of projects and programs required to align the organization with its strategy. Moreover, even when strategy makers do break their plans down into doable chunks, they seldom work with project leaders to prioritize strategic investments and assure that needed resources are applied in priority order. And they often neglect to revise the strategic portfolio to fit the demands of a dynamic environment, or to stay connected to strategic projects through completion, as new products, services, skills and capabilities are transferred into operations.
