Inside Insights: Moving to the Cloud (Part 2)
In this 2nd episode of a 2 part series, I continue my discussion with a CIO that has seen it all, and one of his previous team members who got to do it all. Don Whittington is retired Vice President and Chief Information Officer of Florida Crystals Corporation, a vertically integrated sugar company with headquarters in West Palm Beach, Florida. James Kendrick is a consultant with a history of driving strategic clarity, solution delivery, and business performance with retail and industrial products leaders like Estée Lauder Companies, Florida Crystals, Corning and Dow/DuPont. I’ve had the pleasure to work with both of them and know firsthand how Don’s vision as a CIO and James’ ability to make it happen have a profound impact on how any organization can successfully take on IT projects like moving an SAP implementation to the cloud. Join me as we talk about their secrets to success.
A little more background on each of them:
Don’s career included many truly innovative initiatives, receiving many awards and accolades over the years. Most notably was his longtime innovation partnerships with SAP, Virtustream and PwC as well as his service on many industry boards and councils, including Chairperson for the SAP Global Agribusiness Advisory Council, SAP HANA Councils, and Virtustream Client Advisory Board. He has served as a Director of America’s SAP User Group (ASUG) and ASUG representative for SAP’s Global Executive Network (SUGEN).
James’ focus is helping companies take advantage of cloud platforms, data and analytics, digital tools, and agile methods to modernize the core and add competitive advantage at the edge. He has held executive positions at Accenture, A. T. Kearney, Florida Crystals and multiple successful startups.
