We are seeing a major and fundamental change in how services are delivered. For the first time, developments on the customers’ side of the equation — the rise of smartphones, social media, broadband and mobility — are the most significant factors driving expectations and new services. Given what is happening, it’s likely that we’ll see more change in the next five years than we’ve seen in the past two decades. Organizations have the opportunity to either harness and leverage the trends, or get tumbled by them.
