While mobility is an important element of growth, placing more emphasis on it raises some management issues that need to be addressed. Chief among these is the question of whether the company will adopt a BYOD policy. "Bring Your Own Device" has definite advantages, including more choice by employees and greater buy-in, but also raises the need for a formal policy to guide the use of those devices. In particular this policy must address the increased security risk that comes with allowing a variety of mobile devices to carry and transmit corporate data.
Grant Thornton has released a useful white paper on this topic, which can be downloaded at their site.
