Wow – that year went fast! One of my New Year’s resolutions other than the standard get healthier, drink less etc etc. – make more regular contributions to this blog!

2007 looks to be a very exciting year for so many reasons:

Sonar6

Is in full swing with a rapidly growing customer base and a toehold in each of our key markets. I have spoken to so many people in the marketplace who have recognised the “missing link” in developing tools and solutions for adding value and efficiency to human resources through the effective measurement and analysis of employee performance and potential.

With the release of integrated performance management later next month things will start to move even faster based on current interest in the PM area.

Talent Management

We did a lot of research and talked with many people in 2006 – clients, prospective clients and competitors. All the feedback is consistent – demand for talent management strategy, solutions and services is rapidly increasing.

In particular, many large companies will complete planning and diligence around their strategy in 2007, providing some massive opportunities to the market place.

SaaS

Understanding, and more importantly, adoption of SaaS approaches to the market is set to take a massive leap forward this year. Watch out for more major vendors announcing more SaaS base offerings this year which will further increase customers’ comfort levels.

I have a backlog of information which I want to share here so keep visiting – my posting pace should pick up over the next few weeks!
