Identity Management Success

I know, I know - a lot of incoming email regarding the blogging frequency and the new podcast formats. It’s been a while, and no excuses here (we’re about *real world*), so here are the latest updates.

First, my blogging is moving increasingly in the podcast direction. It’s just a better venue for the “long form” posts that I’ve become famous (or infamous, depending on your perspective) for. After typing 10+ hours on on any given day it’s a welcome treat to sit back and podcast about topics that our clients, listeners, and IAM Practitioners want to hear. With that in mind, the podcast schedule is being “stepped up” to a minimum of twice a month.

So… be sure to stay subscribed to the “Identity Management Success Podcast” in iTunes (it’s searchable in the iTunes store,) or download the latest version from our podcast url.

Increasingly, I’m using Twitter (http://twitter.com/corbinlinks) to broadcast personal and company updates. Stop by and follow me! If you’re in the IAM or business & marketing space, chances are I may follow you back.

What else is new? Volume 2 is progressing nicely, and we’re on target to release Monday, 1 December. A new companion site will also be launched, focusing on the entire Six Stages of IAM as defined by Links Business Group LLC. There will be a lot of content showing up over there and the link will be posted on release day.

Next up, Episode 20 of Identity Management Success will release next week. The title will be “Don’t Throw Away the Wrapper” and you won’t want to miss it. Episode 20 will cover a topic very relevant to the IAM program/project managers out there.

What are the topics you would like to hear covered? Send email to “info [-at-] linksbusinessgroup.com” or call our 24-hour voice mail line at +1 206 203 3214.

That’s all for now! More to follow soon.

Until next time, All the Best, of Identity Management Success

Hello everyone!

A colleague forwarded a great post on the topic of Identity Management outsourcing. Many great points made in this post by industry veterans and luminaries. I commented with a few thoughts of my own, in addition to those of Links Business Group LLC.

Greetings Everyone:

IAM needs you today. Yes, it is time to complete the Links Business Group LLC 2008 survey. It’s quick. It’s painless. It’s only 10 questions. Well…

if you choose not to complete the optional “10th” by entering your email address. And, it should take you less than 10 minutes.

Why would you want to do this? Believe it or not, it benefits us both. Taking a few moments and giving us your honest opinion about a few things helps keep us on our toes, and bringing you the things you want to know and read about most. You could say it’s a “WIN WIN” situation for both of us.

So, don’t be shy. Why not get it out of the way right now? Click on the following link and have your say. Who knows? You might even get a little something extra for doing so.
