Technology changes everything

Human judgement makes it work

My writing focuses on technology, digital transformation, and maintaining career relevance.
With thirty years in critical ICT infrastructure,
I give you what actually works,
written to get you there faster.

Real lessons. No fluff. Unsubscribe anytime.

These aren’t vanity metrics.
They’re years of mistakes I already paid for,
compressed into something you can read in five minutes.

For me, dialogue, exchange and genuine connection with others are essential.
They fuel growth, spark new perspectives and remind us we’re not alone.

Here’s the part that should keep you up tonight. Deloitte. EY. KPMG. PwC. All four got caught shipping AI-hallucinated garbage with sources that never existed. Firms that bill €500 an hour. Firms with compliance departments bigger than most…

  • Technical Credibility Isn’t Business Influence: How to Make Decision-Makers Listen

  • Outlive Your Own Technology

    Technology expires. Your professional value shouldn’t. Over a long career, platforms disappear, vendors change, and technical knowledge loses value faster than we expect.
