SilverFernhas a new "Articles" page!
This page is for our thought-works that cannot be contained within the medium of the blog.
In this inaugural article, I discuss the definition of best-practices as it relates to best-interests, and call upon our industry to adopt the latter.
I have defined an equation that defines best-interests and outline how it should and shouldn't be applied to business practices.
As a topic teaser, here's an introduction to best-interests:
"You practise best-practices with Technology but best-interests with people."
About the Author
I’ve had the good fortune to travel and work internationally. I’ve also had the good fortune to have grown up in New Zealand and have lived the American “immigrant experience” for more than half of my life. I’ve also had an unorthodox musical journey that led me to and kept me in Kansas City.
Music, IT and travel became partners along the way helping me appreciate multiple worldviews and the concepts of cross-disciplinary approaches to life and work. My non-conventional experiences reflect my meanderings about this interesting occupational field.
The beauty of having been in IT for 30 years is that our solutions become predictably cyclic while our problems remain the same. Culture is a topic I’m rather obsessive about. I firmly believe that it will help to usher in a renaissance in American business – oddly enough in the hands of IT.
