Restart?

I found my first blog and realised that my initial attempt had not been successful. It did not attract any readers. I have now linked my various online activities as much as possible and will see whether my followers on Twitter or Connections on LinkedIn will find this blog.

Since my last (and first) blog, I have moved to Perth, Australia and have taken on a CIO role in the Mining industry. This is a very interesting change to Warehousing and Distribution. IT is more in the background with a lower external customer-facing role. This is compensated by a large number of significant change programmes in the area of broader information management and IT centralisation. So, I find myself working on the establishment of a single portal, introduction of Records Management and implementation of a single instance SAP. This is done in a largely outsourced environment where the focus is increasingly on Business Engagement, Program Delivery, Service Management, SLA management and Vendor Performance Management.
