Consulting FAQ

Common questions about IT leadership consulting engagements

What size organizations do you work with?

I focus on mid-market to enterprise organizations ($50M+ revenue) with complex technology challenges. My expertise is most valuable for regulated industries, growth-stage companies, or organizations undergoing significant transformation.

I combine business understanding with hands-on execution experience. Having led $4M+ programs and complex M&A integrations, I understand both the business and technical realities of technology leadership.

For critical situations (M&A deadlines, regulatory issues, failed initiatives), I can typically engage within 48-72 hours. Standard engagements begin within 1-2 weeks of agreement.

Do you work with specific industries?

My primary expertise is in regulated industries - pharmaceutical/biotech, financial services, and government sectors. However, my practical approach and project experience translate well across complex organizational environments.

Success metrics are defined upfront and include both quantitative measures (cost savings, efficiency gains, successful deliveries) and qualitative outcomes (capability development, stakeholder alignment, strategic positioning).

Yes, I'm open to CTO, CIO, or VP Technology roles where I can drive significant organizational impact. I'm particularly interested in regulated industries and complex transformation scenarios.
