| ap automation business case: Office Automation Don Tapscott, 2012-12-06 Every pioneer takes large risks, hoping that the new frontier he seeks will provide the benefits of independence and good fortune. Don Tapscott is such a pioneer in the area of office automation. He has been a true pioneer, having entered the field in its early days and taken the risk of working not in technol ogy, which was fashionable, but in the field of the problems of organizations, which was less fashionable, but in many ways more important. The utilization of computers for data processing, accounting, inventory, and other bread and butter applications is now well entrenched in our society and culture. The process of designing such systems tends to focus on the needs of the company and the constraints of the equipment, leading to efficient systems with little tolerance for the variety of people who must use or interface with them. Within the office automation area, these methods do not work nearly as well. The frequency and amount of human interaction in the office environment, and the wide variety of situations and reactions there in, demands a different design methodology. |
| ap automation business case: The Future of Finance after SEPA Chris Skinner, 2008-05-05 SEPA was created by Europe’s banks in 2002 in response to regulations and plans drawn up by the European Commission from a meeting in Lisbon at the turn of the millennium. Consequently, SEPA has been assisted by new legislation, the PSD, which was agreed in 2007. The implementation of SEPA takes place in 2008 within the banking industry, with full operation in 2010, and will be a massive change to not just banking, but all aspects of finance and financial services across Europe and the globe. This is because the vision for SEPA is that, by 2010, all euro payments are treated in the same way as domestic payments. In other words, European citizens and corporations enjoy a transparent market where there is no difference in charges for payments between Rome, Madrid, Paris and Munich. As a result, citizens, governments and corporations will have full access to finance transparently across 15 countries today and potentially 31 tomorrow. A United States of Europe, fuelled by fully integrated financing, will be different to the fragmented Europe of the past. This book reviews the key implications and challenges of SEPA and the PSD across the European landscape, and the likely outcomes of SEPA for 2010 and beyond. The main themes that emerge are that many of Europe’s leading providers of payments infrastructures, which are often bankowned, will disappear and new payments providers and structures will emerge. Some of these will be evolutions and some will be revolutions. In addition, there will be major impacts upon those banks that cannot provide euro-services competitively in this new geographically competitive environment. The winners will reap major rewards, but there will be far more losers who will be merged or acquired. With contributions from leading authorities, including: • Anthony Kirby, the Reference Data User Group • Ashley Dowson, the SEPA Consultancy • Bo Harald, TietoEnator • Bodil Nelsson and Mats Wallén, Bankgirocentralen • Brenda O’Connell, Bank of Ireland • Chris Pickles, BT • Chris Skinner, the Financial Services Club and Balatro • Daniel Szmukler, EBA CLEARING • Daniele Danese, Banca Popolare di Verona • David Doyle, EU Policy Advisor on Financial Markets • Doctor John Ryan, CASS Business School • Erkki Poutiainen, Nordea • Eva King, the European Commission • Geoffroy de Schrevel, SWIFT • Gerard Hartsink, the European Payments Council • Gianfranco Tabasso, the European Association of Corporate Treasurers • Harry Leinonen, the Bank of Finland • Heiko Schmiedel, the European Central Bank • Henrik Parl, Eurogiro • Hervé Postic, founder, UTSIT • James Barclay, JPMorgan Chase • John Bullard, IdenTrust • John Chaplin, First Data • Jonathan Williams, Eiger • Juergen Weiss, Gartner • Mark Hale, Barclays Bank • Neil Burton, IBM • Nick Senechal, VocaLink • René Pelegero, PayPal • Richard Spong, Sterling Commerce • Robert Bradfield, Ernst & Young • Ruth Wandhöfer, Citi • Sean Fitzgerald, Sentinel • Sharon Bowles, Member of the European Parliament • Tom Buschman, TWIST |

| ap automation business case: Complexity Perspectives in Innovation and Social Change David Lane, Denise Pumain, Sander Ernst van der Leeuw, Geoffrey West, 2009-02-13 Innovation is nowadays a question of life and death for many of the economies of the western world. Yet, due to our generally reductionist scientific paradigm, invention and innovation are rarely studied scientifically. Most work prefers to study its context and its consequences. As a result, we are as a society, lacking the scientific tools to understand, improve or otherwise impact on the processes of invention and innovation. This book delves deeply into that topic, taking the position that the complex systems approach, with its emphasis on ‘emergence’, is better suited than our traditional approach to the phenomenon. In a collection of very coherent papers, which are the result of an EU-funded four year international research team’s effort, it addresses various aspect of the topic from different disciplinary angles. One of the main emphases is the need, in the social sciences, to move away from neo-darwinist ‘population thinking’ to ‘organization thinking’ if we want to understand social evolution. Another main emphasis is on developing a generative approach to invention and innovation, looking in detail at the contexts within which invention and innovation occur, and how these contexts impact on the chances for success or failure. Throughout, the book is infused with interesting new insights, but also presents several well-elaborated case studies that connect the ideas with a substantive body of ‘real world’ information. |

The most important skills a leader needs to succeed in a digital environment are not technical in nature but managerial—strategic vision, forward-looking perspective, change-oriented mindset.
