DEVELOPING A CLOUD
CULTURE

Culture is Critical
32
“Shifting to a hybrid or public cloud model
is a cultural shift, not a technology or security shift.”
Niel Nickolaisen, Cloud 101: the Right Strategy for CIOs
“Given the increasing number and quality of cloud offerings,
we CIOs had better be the ones driving this cultural shift -- otherwise, we
are on the path to obsolescence”
Niel Nickolaisen, Cloud 101: the Right Strategy for CIOs
“If your I&O team members aren’t building a true cloud because they can’t
see the benefit in doing so or are threatened by it, show them a new
career path that makes cloud a no-brainer.”
James Staten/Lauren E. Nelson, Forrester Research, Rise of the New Cloud Admin
