In my current and former roles (as a consultant, manager, business owner, and developer of various innovations) I have worked with people at all levels, in many types of organisation. So whether you are a CEO, executive, senior or middle manager, technical specialist, expert, scientist, or any other role, you are welcome.
In science, technology and the environment, I have a good understanding of every aspect and would be very interested to work with people in those sectors. This also includes coming up with bright ideas and innovative solutions. Equally, I have a clear understanding of how these areas may develop in the future [some call this "futurology", "futurism" or being a "futurist"].
You can quickly gain further unique benefits from the fact that I provide a clear and concise approach to the development of innovation policies and strategies. This, along with an excellent technical understanding, is a strong unique selling point.
I am happy to work with anyone who is in a position to make innovation happen, and wishes to do so.
I have formal qualifications in science (BSc Honours in physics), the environment (PhD in traffic pollution), adult teaching, and coaching.
My career includes several "claims to fame" :
» Winner of two global innovation prizes, for the Energy XPRIZE!
» Development of the first prototype for voice mail (in the UK)
» Automation of factories across the world, including the largest food corporation in the world
» Pioneering world-wide innovations in smart transport technologies and related information systems
» Development of pan-European advanced transport telematics strategies
» Development of the most advanced road traffic emissions model in the world
» A unique approach to environmental improvements via innovative transport strategies and technologies
» Information and IT manager at the best further education college in the UK (as then rated by independent inspection)
» Development of the first HND E-Business course in the UK
» Almost became a "dot-com millionaire", well almost
I have also spent a significant amount of time developing e-learning (or online learning) resources for further and higher education [colleges and universities].
