By Sandy Carter

If you are like me, you are very intrigued with how successful people and companies do things. They are always one step ahead of everyone else! How do they know what to do to be successful?

These successful companies – called Pacesetters – have always intrigued the industry, and the IBM Center for Applied Insights decided to find out how they do it. They surveyed over 1,400 decision-makers in 15 industries across 5 continents to get a current global snapshot of how companies are using key technologies to stay ahead of the pack. They found that Pacesetters are using Cloud, Analytics, Mobile and Social to drive more business outcomes.

But how do they do this? How do they stay ahead of the fray when so many are using the same technologies?

On August 21st, we’ll reveal the findings during a webcast with the release of the 2014 Business Tech Trends study. We’ll share with you the key characteristics of Pacesetter companies. In addition, we’ll turn this information into actions and ideas that will help you approach the market more effectively.
