Disciplines:

This could be called "Coaching", or, Consulting, Professional Services, Business Development, Strategic Alliances, Account Management, etc. I call it passion: sharing, learning, reflecting & collaborating, using new Web tools such as social network systems, blogs, Web Services & wikis. I constantly try out new tools and techniques & then I use my pragmatic business bend to recommend the right ones for my clients & colleagues. I have been strategizing & executing for 3 different CTO's & a number of CEOs, hence my multidisciplinary nature.
I can help, from roadmapping to implementation. Chris Simandl |
Secret weapon
Our strength lies in our ability to actively bridge the communication & comprehension gap
that frequently exists between different corporate layers (management layers, business layers & development/operational layers).
