In addition to subscribing to many advisory services, I attend numerous conferences and seminars. Further to this, I always make myself available to others who are promoting or selling new products or services.
  • I listen carefully and ask detailed questions, not being afraid to say “I do not understand”.
  • I am trying to gain real value for my time.
  • At a conference presentation you will always find me in the first two rows taking notes and asking questions, with the skill set to absorb complicated issues.
  • Following this I may want to use this new information to make presentations to others, as part of my recommendations to solve problems.
  • I have always believed that if I cannot explain my ideas simply to others, perhaps my understanding and/or solution is flawed.
  • Use of Disabled Veterans, as Customer Service Representatives (CSR’s), yields a lower employee turnover rate and a superior service to clients.
  • Using my Identity & Access Management (I&AM) solution, allows for stopping data breaches, allowing secure teleworking and cost effective safe use of the cloud.

  • Installed a KU band earth station on the front lawn of a call center in Confidential, SA, just in case a newly installed ocean fiber would fail. It failed for over two months and we proved we could operate a call center with 680 msec of latency. The key to this success was “Speak - Shut-up - Listen” and proper breathing.
  • Continuously tracking Visible Light Communications as a game changer when it comes to on-site data distribution. This has the potential to accommodate up to 250 Gbps of GPU & large data needs in a LED lamps footprint, while reducing lighting costs.
