Exploring the frontier of technology and innovation, I work with passionate advocates and skilled practitioners to merge emerging capabilities with business opportunities, fostering game-changing innovation in the real world.My goal is to create sustainable, game changing innovation that enables ideas to be turned into value more quickly. I work with people in business and technology to understand the details and nuances of the problems to be solved and across academia and industry to explore and discover different ways of solving them. I aim to synthesise the many perspectives and ideas into a more coherent whole that is actionable. Finding appropriate solutions often involves a mix of new ways of working, thinking differently about the problems, and identifying the different kinds of technology that apply to the different parts of the problem to resolve tensions and improve performance.There are lots of ways of tuning any solution and many ways to break a problem down into parts. Having an awareness of the options and the different approaches and technologies available helps create a balanced approach that avoids unnecessary complexity whilst fostering sufficient diversity to address the different aspects of the problem fully. There are always trade-offs so we may as well understand what they are and make them deliberately.In my experience, opportunity is created by recognising possibilities and matching them with our desires and capabilities, and those of our network. Understanding what motivates us, what we each have to offer, and the talents and resources we can each bring to bear is key to success in any endeavour, as is effective collaboration.Specialties: Innovation, analysis, strategy and planning, technology trends, scenario maps, impact analysis, root cause analysis, problem solving, perspective alignment, facilitation, coaching, change management, knowledge management, information architecture, enterprise solution architecture, benefits realisation
