Work With Me
Tactical
My tactical consulting work is generally short projects with social tools developers, large corporations, non-profits, or government agencies. Often these are working sessions or retreats where product strategies are reworked or technology adoption is planned. There can also be longer range design projects, working closely with a team of developers or an organization deploying new tools.
In some cases, clients may ask for an on-going series of meetings, on a quarterly or biannual basis, but generally such long term relationships become strategic in nature.
Example engagements:
- Supporting quarterly executive retreat, including keynote presentation and leading a workshop on new directions in technology, product development, or futurism.
- Two day product assessment and action plan development with start-up working on version 2.0.
- Design and rollout of a blogging program and platform for a magazine.
Strategic
Most of my work involves long-term strategic relationships with social tools developers. Often this grows from a short-term, tactical engagement, but the largest benefits from advisory work come over time. This work is usually focused on product strategy — developing the right social tool for some idealized community of users — as well as the positioning of that product in the competitive context.
In most cases, this advisory work involves an advisory board position, although that is not always the case.
