Reports

Packages of articles written as reportage at conferences and summits, reports explore strategic issues in depth—and from several points of view. They benefit from my dual roles as reporter and analyst: you'll glean advice of thought leaders, plus my "between the lines" interpretations and suggestions.

Even more exciting, I have implemented reports' links as searches and tags, so the content is updated automatically when you access it here—and it displays with most recent content on top.
