My writing
With my writing I try to help C-level executives, partners, and board members to be more effective and successful when it comes to delivering business value through technology.
To deliver value through technology there are a number of jobs that a CxO (like Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Chief Information Officer, etc.) will need to be able to do well when leading organisations in a project economy.
As a result, I’ve organised my site into 9 portals representing the most important jobs to be done to help you find the content that best suits your need. These are:
