Our guest on the podcast this week is Robert Christiansen, Vice President, Cloud Adoption Practice Lead at Cloud Technology Partners. We discuss a basic framework for cloud adoption in large enterprises based on learnings from over 400 client engagements at Cloud Technology Partners. Through these experiences, patterns have emerged that can be used to make strategies for engaging large enterprises in cloud adoption despite early fear and uncertainty.  A key step is to put together an internal cloud team or Cloud Business Office (CBO) with buy-in from all departments including legal so that adoption can move forward with full support. The beginning of enterprise cloud migration can sometimes be more about changing psychology over changing technology.
