The forum specializes in analyzing the intersection of business and information technology in large organizations, aimed at senior executive audiences, in both the commercial and public sectors. The forum has categorized its research into six capabilities aimed at helping organizations evolve and thrive in the 21st Century; Pro-active haptic sensing, Inspiring digital identity and strategy, Outside-in approach to assets and capabilities, 360 degree digitally optimized product and service portfolio, Adaptive execution and Value-centric leadership in an uncertain world .[2] HistoryThe organization traces its roots back to 1988 when CSC acquired the consulting and research firms, Index Group [3]in the United States and later the Butler Cox Foundation [4] in the United Kingdom in 1991. Index Group, founded by Thomas P. Gerrity and others from MIT was perhaps best known for coining the term business re-engineering popularized by the book by James Champy and Michael Hammer, Re-engineering the Corporation .[5] In collaboration with Michael Treacy, it also helped establish the Value Disciplines approach to business strategy.[6] The Butler Cox Foundation founded by David Butler [7]and George Cox [8]and created "the most successful membership organisation for CIOs ever initiated in Europe",[7] that would enable senior IT executives to exchange ideas and share experiences, backed by an ongoing research process. The term, consumerization, was first fully explored by LEF in a position paper in June 2004 [9], first known published paper on this topic. Four years later, in June 2008 the Wikipedia entry for Consumerization was created. Leadership(as of 2014), the Managing Director is Richard Davies ,[10] Press coverageLeading Edge Forum research has been mentioned by many news institutions including Forbes,[11] The Economist, [12]CIO Magazine [13]and Wall St Journal.
