You finished the book. Here is the rest of it.
The four directions work on a page. They work better against a real quarter, a real team, and a real calendar.
Start a conversation Every message reaches me directly. I reply within two business days.Technology leaders deciding what to do about AI — and what it will cost the humans.
I have spent more than twenty years inside that decision: infrastructure engineering, cloud transformation, and enterprise technology leadership. Not observing it. Doing it.
- You are adopting AI and the hype on both sides has stopped being useful
- A cloud or platform transformation is technically on track and culturally not
- Your team's pace is unsustainable and nobody wants to be the one to say so
- You need someone who has run the thing, not someone who has read about it
Pick the one that matches the decision in front of you.
Ongoing counsel
A standing conversation with you or your leadership team through a transformation, an AI adoption, or a reorganization. Monthly or fortnightly, for a defined period.
Best when the decision is not one meeting long.
Conference and company events
Talks on direction in the AI era, staying human at machine speed, and what leadership actually requires when the tools change every quarter.
Best for all-hands, summits, and industry events.
A working session with your team
Half or full day. We take the four directions and run your real calendar, your real roadmap, and your real constraints through them.
Best when you want the team to leave with decisions, not notes.
If you have read one, you already know how I think.
Finding Direction in the Age of AI
Where are we going? The short one — for leaders deciding what AI changes and what it does not.
The Digital Compass
Where am I pointed? Four directions for anyone being pulled too many ways at once.
Wired for Purpose
What do I carry today? A daily reader for the people who build and run technology.
No forms with eleven fields. One message, one reply, one call.
- You writeTell me what you are deciding and roughly when. Three sentences is plenty.
