Big Vs Small – Poll inside

Some researchers made a point that BI is not the core business of large Enterprise Software vendors, indicating a below average feedback by many of their BI and Performance Management users, and I say, this is true, to some extent, being able to put hands on almost every BI solution in the market, and from a very Middle-Eastern, GCC point of view, none of the big, medium and small vendors have even put a clean, clear, sharp roadmap for their offerings yet. Those acquisition voracious giants, and I am talking Oracle and SAP are looking first to enlarge their portfolios and offering, eliminate and shrug off competition, without a definite focus on the business intelligence vertical applications, and their overlapping products, are simply disgusting to certain users who are in the process of researching the market, simply in this case, bigger is not always better!

Credit crunch caused by BI?

Having spent the past 10 years or so promoting and providing information technology solutions, and with today's e-life, a website is a natural outcome confirming a person's identity, not to be as a substitute of social networking, but at least a space for discussion, sharing thoughts and articles and putting it at the disposal of friends co-workers and visitors...

How Tomorrow’s Leaders Will Get Ahead

This new imperative is called Management Excellence. To achieve it, companies need to become smart, agile and aligned.

Argentina’s World Cup Debate

Jad Baz — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 11:32:16 +0000

We have seen it so many times in the past where great players don’t make great coaches, and it now seems to have happened again with the greatest player of them all - Diego Maradona.

It saddens to say this because Maradona is a God in Campania, but the 48-year-old is not cut out for sitting on the bench. With the players he has at his disposal, Argentina should already be qualified for South Africa. Yet with just three games of their CONMEBOL group to go – two of them difficult trips to Paraguay and Uruguay – and only two points separating the fourth-placed Albicelestes from Colombia and Ecuador in fifth and sixth, there is the very real possibility of missing out on their first World Cup for 40 years.
