Cheshire Henbury's expertise
lies in the area of strategic management of technology. In particular
we do not believe in a technology-based approach, where other
important matters are treated as secondary or are ignored. The
key to success with the application of new technologies lies
in the integration of strategy, technology, organisation and
people. Firms that do not achieve alignment between these four
aspects tend to underperform and fail to achieve the full business
benefits.
In this respect e-business
is no different from other technologies. However, another factor
is at work. Structural changes that are enabling e-business,
and the structural changes that will follow from the implementation,
result in significant levels of uncertainty. This coupled with
a fast pace of change means that application of e-business if
quite complex and challenging. To deal with this problem firms
also need to adopt an agile approach. See our agility
home page for further details.
Cheshire Henbury is one of
the few organisations in the world that has pioneered the development
of a focussed understanding of agility as a means of dealing
with structural change and the associated high levels of uncertainty.
This coupled with our insights into strategy, technology, organisation
and people integration and alignment, makes our knowledge and
expertise unique.
Our central philosophy is that
e-business and agility are something one does for oneself, using
outside experts to support this process.
For firms who are ready to
begin to understand and embrace e-business and the agility required
to deal with structural changes and uncertainty, Cheshire Henbury
can provide support in several different ways. We can help customers
to:
- Better understand the topic
and spread this understanding to key decision makers;
- Develop a high level e-business/agility
supporting strategy;
- Identify areas where e-business
can best be utilised;
- Design company specific implementation
processes;
- We can also provide on-going
support for internal e-business projects.
For conference organisers we
are able to offer a key note speaker. Paul T. Kidd has extensive
experience of making such presentations, both to public domain
and in-house events. See our list of previous
