  • Ray was fantastic! He was a real pleasure to work with and he really kicked our second day off so well. His presentation was a perfect complement to the show and his humour and energy were just what was required to get the day going. We received a significant amount of positive feedback from our attendees and I would not hesitate in recommending him or using him again at another event. Also thank you for all of your help in the set up- you could not have made it any easier!

  • HBR: The Four Personas of the Next Gen CIO

    Five years ago, Chief Information Officers (CIOs) were on top of the world. These executives played mission-critical roles in driving multi-million dollar projects that delivered massive change.

Armed with the art of the possible, innovators are seeking to apply disruptive consumer technologies to enterprise class uses — call it the consumerization of IT in the enterprise. The likely results include new methods of furthering relationships, crafting longer term engagement, and creating transformational business models. It’s part of a shift from transactional systems to engagement systems.
