“…In the Continuum perspective, Edge resources act as a first, close-to-user layer of resource capacity that enjoys low latency and higher, distributed bandwidth, while conventional Cloud infrastructures play the role of the high-capacity, reliable reservoir of services to support large user groups and provide massive performance when needed. Interoperability and efficient allocation of resources at the Edge can enable a whole new set of scenarios where interactive and time-sensitive services can close the proximity gap towards acquired and potential users, extending low-latency services toward them. …”

“…For the first time, this book lays out the Katzenbach Center's proven methodology for identifying your culture's four most critical elements: traits, characteristics that are at the heart of people's emotional connection to what they do; keystone behaviors, actions that would lead your company to succeed if they were replicated at a greater scale; authentic informal leaders, people who have a high degree of "emotional intuition" or social connectedness; and metrics, integrated, thoughtful measures to track progress, encourage the self-reinforcing cycle of lasting change and link to business performance. By leveraging these critical few elements, you can tap into a source of catalytic change within your organization. …”
