I am a Digitial Warrior my method of operation is to - Clear, Hold, and Build.
Clear the issues of ideas based on ideology - put the issues into a contemporary context then establish a framework for action. Hold all good ideas within a model - test them to breakng point with prototypes and then test them again. Build off the successful prototypes with deliberate speed and purpose so as to deliver use value.

I have had the great pleasure of working on change at NASA in the early 1980s. In government in Australia in the 1970s as a policy input to our Prime Minister. At the Department of Foriegn Affairs and Trade in the early 1990s. In manufacturing in the mid 1990s. In financial services in the early part of this century. Most recently in the health care industry with a private health insurance company.
My ongoing interest is the flat, digital, mobile, virtual, and personal world of business. The internet has made business flat - it is a global network with billions of users. The digital technology is pervasive in business systems today - it is fast and it promises more machine-to-machine solutions to business problems. Telecommunications have delivered a 24/7 mobile platform for business transactions and interactions. Virtual assets are important today - content on the internet is a key virtual asset that can now be distributed at minimal marginal cost.
The new dimension of business is that it is inclusive - customers are welcomed on the production lines - and it has a free component in most offerings. Gone are the old business conventions of exclusion and differential pricing points - this is a low cost and low price world for business.
The new business system is some times very different to those we have seen before because the revenue model is detached from the key products or services - the new age business usually has a passive income system.
The next big thing will probably be the emergence of global business that are as influential as nation-states were last century - this not a prediction so much as an observation.
The scope for business innovation is expanding daily - this is an interesting time to be involved in all aspects of the business world.
Holding steadfast to old habits, ways of thinking, and ways of being in the world is no longer an option.
