Do your tech advisors – everyone involved in delivering a technical solution, including developers, data scientists, product managers, testers, and the like – grasp the needs of your organization or one you might consider acquiring or investing in?

Where is your tech strategy strong?

Where does it need improvement?

Is your investment in salaries and equipment paying off, or is your money disappearing into a bottomless pit?

Douglas Squirrel coaches business teams on how to create and align on goals, discard good ideas that don’t fit the strategy, and deliver high-impact, customer-visible results.

Tune in to hear Douglas’ thoughts on:

  • How can you know whether those expensive software engineers you have are really worth their eye-watering salaries?
  • Is IT just a cost center or can you actually make a profit from it?
  • Everyone loves to blame software bugs for bad service. Should we just accept that tech is always going to screw things up?
  • Tech folks always say they’re “agile”, but it seems to take forever to get anything done. How can we get better results faster?
  • Is AI going to make programmers obsolete?
  • Can engineers really learn to speak customers’ language and understand what they need?
  • And much, much more!
