Each month, Charles Araujo joins Cloud Wars Live for a recurring segment known as “Araujo on Transformation.” Charlie is a bestselling author who has three books to his name: “The Quantum Age of IT,” “The Ecosystem Advantage,” and “Performance-driven IT.” He is also an engaging speaker who will entertain and challenge your audience. Charlie has a website called www.charlesaraujo.com, and another called “The Institute for Digital Transformation.” In this episode, Charlie and I talk about the cataclysmic year we’ve been having, and the fact that the environment is constantly shifting.

Episode 4:

Charlie talks about how he wrote an article called the “Digital Enterprise Readiness Framework,” and it was tied to the idea of resiliency – and how pleased he was that there were a number of executives who had their business continuity plan (BCP) at the ready.

He goes on to say that none of us are going to forget the year 2020. It has been a cataclysmic series of events. But a business continuity plan is designed to absorb the shock – be it pandemic, a terrorist attack, or a natural disaster.

We conclude with what he calls the imagination gap – only it’s not just one thing, it’s two things. The first one is fear, and the second one is ignorance.
