From Good to Great to Built to Last
May 13, 2008Finally we are at the last chapter of “Good to Great” with the title “From Good To Great To Built To Last”. This is chapter 9 of a fairly short book if you take out all the extra material at the end. Jim Collins set out to answer the question what makes good [...]
Citrix Universe
May 13, 2008I was curious to see what the state of Citrite.org was recently. It is now completely gone and has been replaced by another Sam Johnston production entitled “Citrix Universe“.

Great companies realize that not all technology is useful and that technology is more of an aid than a primary mover. Adoption of technology [...]
A Culture of Discipline
May 6, 2008This is about chapter 6 of “Good to Great” and it is called “A Culture of Discipline”.
In every new company is a seed of creativity and a sense of entrepreneurial spirit. Bold moves are made and if success comes, the company grows. This growth triggers problems however. It is much more difficult to control a [...]

May 3, 2008Marketing is a fascinating field. Ever since my close up exposure to early Citrix marketing, I’ve always wondered how these things really work. There was always a taste of what it was, but never any really deep understanding.
Recently I searched for marketing related topics and found one that really interested me. It is called positioning [...]
