I’m first and foremost client-driven, thinking strategically for my clients and stakeholders and deliver products and services to help grow their business. This includes evangelising the portfolio and building compelling content and stories to enable and excite Sales, in turn, helping to achieve the company’s vision and overall business objectives.
My career demonstrates strong execution capability in launching and growing business in the areas of Cloud Computing, Digital Transformation, SaaS, Managed Services, and Unified Communications. I’m very enthused and passionate around these hot industry topics, as well as Security, Internet of Things (IoT), Virtual/Augmented Reality (VR/AR), Automation, and Service Excellence (including Change Management) and how they all deliver revenue/profit growth.
Having the humble pleasure of being a global hands-on leader, I continually enjoy investing in and nurturing my direct/indirect reports to deliver exceptional customer experience and business excellence. I learn as much from my team(s) as they learn from me. I use analytics to assess best tactics to execute overall business strategy and heavily collaborate with my team(s) to identify the best, creative and often fun ways to achieve that vision.
My professional influences lead with Simon Sinek and include several thought leaders across many industries and analysts, many of which I have strong relationships.
Technology is in my DNA but the ambition has been, and always shall be, delivering outstanding client and stakeholder satisfaction.
My career to date includes roles at Cloudreach, Arkadin (now NTT), MTI Technology, Rackspace, IPC Systems, Airwave and Sun Microsystems. Positions range across Product Management & Marketing, Managed Services and Solutions Consultancy.
‘Technology in my DNA‘ was coined after many saw me as an authority in several categories of consumer-grade gadgets. I’m passionate around the use case for each gadget I own or have reviewed, and have helped translate the features and benefits of the technology to the masses in both professional and social circles. When I’m not blogging or evangelising new technologies, I can be found pursuing my passion in photography and calligraphy.
