Just been reading this post on UCExpo blog (penned by editor Guy Clapperton) and thought I’d re-share it here as I’ve been thinking quite a lot about the whole Unified Communications and Collaboration piece, and for me there is still too much uncertainty over what exactly is meant, and that is the point – there is no real universally accepted definition of what you get with UC – in fact I am writing a blog about this as we speak, so watch this space.
I’ve highlighted this piece from the article as I thought it a good summary, so here it is:
“UC and what it means isn’t completely set. Three years ago including ‘social’ in it would have seemed a little avant garde, now it’s becoming mainstream. Procurement patterns are not settled either – hopefully this weeks posts will offer some insights into what different organisations are doing.”

I am a highly experienced, energetic, persistent and innovative senior sales professional/sales leader and coach with more than 30 years, of successful sales and leadership experience. I have been successfully developing and managing sales teams and winning new business with and through partner channels in this time. My default approach is one of clarity, support, openness and flexibility.
I am by nature inquisitive and enquiring and wholeheartedly embrace technology that enhances our experiences. Fun is an incredibly important element of work/life for me, so whilst I am deadly serious about the business of business, I do like to work in an environment that is fun to be in.
I am very much a people person and fundamentally believe that it is the people in an organisation that make it a success or otherwise.
I thrive in teams - creating, developing and galvanising individuals into coordinated teams is my forte, and I love a fast-paced dynamic environment too, where great people challenge and ultimately deliver high-quality results for demanding customers.
I am a passionate advocate for the customer, and hold a firm belief that in the customer economy, World-Class performance is "table stakes" if you wish to retain (and grow) the customer base. If we do get it wrong, we say so quickly and act to rectify it swiftly.
I consider myself to be a catalyst – connecting and coordinating people and opportunities. I am a motivator and inspire people to be the best that they can be through coaching and mentoring.
One of my favourite "quotes" is
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body. But rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, with a beer in one hand, shouting "Whoo, what a ride!!"
