Confluence and the Salmon Fisherman’s Secret

salmon2.jpg My colleague Roy Youngman just pointed out to me what salmon fishermen already know – the best place to catch King Salmon (and other varieties) is at the confluence of rivers.  Turns out, where rivers come together, the conditions are ideal for salmon fishing.

I love the analogy – where the rivers of business and IT converge, the conditions are ideal for realizing high value from information technology investments!

The more I think about this term confluence as it applies to the new integration of business and IT, the more I like it!
