Now I don't want the title of this post to come across as haughty. I give a lot of presentations, but I would be the first to admit that I have a lot to learn. But I do try to constantly improve with each one, and so at least I have a pretty good idea of what SHOULD be done. And coming on the heels of listening to a fair number of presentations at the info360 event, let's just say I got a pretty good idea last week of the converse as well.

Making an ECM implementation successful requires planning and attention to detail. The best way to create the right solution is to identify organizational goals and priorities. Learn how to manage a successful implementation in our free guide.
The Info360 event taking place from March 21 – 24 in Washington, DC will be the final “AIIM” Show to bear the AIIM name. This is the culminating activity of an evolutionary course we began 10 years ago when we sold the event (known as the AIIM International Exposition and Conference) to Advanstar/Questex. It also marks the successful transition to the Info360 name for the event, a transition initiated by Questex 3 years ago.

Last year, David Meerman Scott and I had a discussion on his great blog about one of the core issues that we both run into. It's the question of whether to gate our eBooks behind a submission form or not. This is something I've struggled with both internally in my own work at AIIM and externally as we provide content sponsorships to our trade members.

Often in my presentations, I ask people whether they know that the Association I represent had its roots over 60 years ago in the microfilm business. I then proceed to talk about how our focus has always been about the management of unstructured information in the context of business processes, and then proceed to explain the migration from film to micrographics to images to documents to content.

We would like to take this opportunity to do three things. Firstly, report back to the readers of this blog and the broader content and records management community on the “State of the Association.” Secondly, but even more importantly, thank you for your support, involvement, and guidance during these challenging times. And lastly, take a moment on behalf of the Board and the staff to wish you and yours a very Happy Holiday and extend our best wishes for a happy and successful 2011.
