The ICYMI Weekly Round-Up: December 4–8, 2017
Michael Dortch
Greetings. In case you were wondering, “ICYMI” is short for “in case you missed it.” And because of last week’s Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., this is a special, two-week digest of recent news, events, and content in and around Ivanti and Ivanti.com. We hope you find it both interesting and useful. Let us know via email to [email protected] – and thanks!
This Week’s Big News: Let the Reviews and Predictions Begin!
The end of a year all but guarantees three things. One is a mad dash among salespeople and others at businesses of all sizes and types to close the year strong. The other two? Reviews of the previous year, and predictions for the year to come.
All three activities take place in and around Ivanti as well. Two of the blog posts highlighted below feature looks back at 2017 and prognostications for 2018. We’ll bring you more of both in the weeks ahead. In the meantime, if you’ve got 2017 memories, 2018 predictions, or both to share, we’d love to hear about them. Drop us a line at [email protected], and let us know if we should keep your pronouncements anonymous. Thanks in advance. Oh, and Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Ivanti! ☺
