IT in sync with the business. Imagine the results...
Catching up...finally

Greetings!  Yo Yo
 

I've had many people tell me they've missed my newsletter.  To be honest, I have too.

 

This edition is long overdue.

 

I've been busy marketing my book, speaking,  tweeting, blogging for CIOUpdate.com and serving my clients.

 

I'm busy, but having a blast!

 

I'm now in my 7th year of business, in the middle of my 5th Interim CIO role, and this is the 5th year of my newsletter.

 

Even better, I get the pleasure of staying in touch with those valued people in my network (like you!) who provide referrals, help me serve clients, and just listen and laugh together as good friends do.

  

I truly look forward to another busy year of having fun.

 

Here's hoping your yo-yo only goes up!!

Haunting the CEO 
Haunting the CEO

 

"Highly recommended!" That's what GE's CTO, Gregory Simpson, said about my new book, Haunting the CEO.

 

The book has been extremely well-received! Thank you to everyone who has purchased it, and to those who have provided an endorsement/review on LinkedIn or Amazon. Much appreciated!

 

Haunting the CEO is available on my website and on Amazon.com (in hardback or Kindle version).

  

I wrote the book for CEOs, CIOs and anyone with a desire to gain new insights into what it means to be a true leader. You don't have to be a CIO to enjoy or learn from the characters and events of this business fable.

 

To get a taste, you can read an excerpt here: www.hauntingtheceo.com.

 

Enjoy...!
