Electronic Records Management (ERM)
As Yogi supposedly once said, it's like deja vu all over again. I recently came across this article from e-doc Magazine by my friend Nishan DeSilva (then of Watson Wyatt fame, now at Microsoft). For those of you who might not know, this was a physical magazine published by AIIM. (Speaking of e-doc Magazine, how many remember it's successor, Infonomics magazine? Gosh, I wish we had held onto that name!)

Say you’re feeling a bit under the weather. Ache here, pain there, friends asking, “Are you ok? You look...tired.” What’s the first thing you’ll do? Go to the doctor? Of course not. You Google your symptoms, so you can judge if 1) you can cure what ails you on your own, or 2) it’s worth the hassle of going in to see your doctor. If you do end up going, you’ll proudly share your diagnosis with her before she can even examine you just to make sure she doesn’t waste your time.

Collaboration | GDPR | Social Media
A new set of European rules and standards related to privacy and data protection (the General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR) has set in motion a mad compliance and security scramble not only for European companies, but also for any company doing business in Europe or with European customers. The regulation is designed to harmonize privacy across the EU, codify more rigorous privacy rights, strike a balance between privacy and security, and create an explicit obligation for both data controllers and processors to demonstrate compliance with GDPR. The clock is ticking – the regulation goes into effect on May 25th, 2018, and the potential penalties for non-compliance are significant (organizations found to be in breach of GDPR may be fined up to 4% of annual revenues or 20 million Euro, whichever is the greater).

Capture and Imaging | Information Security
We need to update the way we handle data and documents. Scanning and information capture lead a curious double life. On one hand, it seems like we’ve been doing scanning and capture forever, at least within larger companies. Scanning and capture are stable, mature technologies with a well-documented ROI. On the other hand, they are still somewhat new when it comes to adoption by many smaller and mid sized organizations.

Business Process Management (BPM)
Project management often involves working in high-stress environments with tight deadlines and multiple competing priorities. The most successful Project Managers learn how to navigate these environments and often have a strong understanding of their own shortcomings and the strengths of their team.
