Thu Sep-28-2023: Making Tech Choices, Net Neutrality, and Workplace Harassment
Business of Tech: Daily 10-Minute IT Services Insights - A podcast by MSP Radio
In this episode of the Business of Tech, host Dave Sobel discusses three important topics. First, he explores the importance of making the right tech choices by considering factors such as security and total cost of ownership. Next, he delves into the regulatory spotlight, discussing the return of net neutrality and Amazon's antitrust troubles. Finally, Sobel discusses the impact of remote work on workplace harassment and provides insights for providers. The episode also includes a sponsorship message from Alinea Partners, a sales readiness assessment company. Additionally, Sobel highlights the NFIB's Small Business Optimism Index, which reveals a decline in optimism among small business owners due to concerns about inflation, rising prices, hiring difficulties, declining sales, and labor quality and costs. Lastly, he shares the findings of a Forrester survey commissioned by CloudFlare, which shows that lack of cloud connectivity is undermining enterprise IT and security management, with cloud complexity and app decentralization being contributing factors.
