About Me
I play in these interesting spaces between technology and marketing. I work to evangelize bank 3.0 and engagement banking strategies, which can be best described as a marketing, sales, and service model that deploys technology to achieve both customer intimacy and scale. A critical component of these efforts is understanding customer behavior and predicting where that behavior is moving and how it will eventually impact your evolving business model.
We don’t design or learn in a box. I am continually learning from (and hopefully contributing to) the growing community of fintech innovators and disruptors. You need to act as a catalyst to help lead the adaptation to rapidly changing environments. To drive organizational agility, you need to foster curiosity, critical debate, a cycle of test and learn, and the occasional corporate rebellion. Whether in the form of a lab, a sandbox, or an incubator, you need to create space where innovation can thrive, where failure is analyzed, and iterative improvements can be achieved.
