Burton Group Catalyst - Craig Burton

At this year's Catalyst, I had the distinct pleasure of having a drink with Craig Burton, the original founder of the Burton Group and the Catalyst Conferences. He is a legend in the industry. His vision on directories and identities was well ahead of most other people's time.

I asked Craig what he thought were the top there challenges facing identity? He answered:
1. Identity needs to be bottom up driven rather than top down driven as it is today.
2. Identity speak needs to get out of the technical babble and instead talk in the language of the user.
3. We need a new identity language that can speak to this.

Thanks for the wisdom Craig!
