I just had a chance to look through the results of our recent survey on EDI costs. Some interesting responses were there, with not a lot of surprises.  I’m sure one of my fellow writers will provide a summary for the class. What really caught my attention, though, were the verbatim responses.

In my copious free time over the holidays, I managed to knock off a few of the books that had stacked up on me. Although I tend to stick to mysteries, thrillers, spy novels, and stuff like that, I occasionally find a biography that interests me. I couldn’t wait to read the Steve Jobs bio written by Walter Isaacson, and it was a winner. Even if you don’t like Apple products and you may not give a hoot about its recently deceased leader, you’ll still find it fascinating.

What I thought I'd touch on today is a topic that's been discussed in the past on the site: where does the "EDI Team" belong in your organization? I have a pretty good perspective on this one, since we experienced almost the entire gamut of organizational possibilities during my tenure.
