Approach

I hold an honours degree in Computer Science from Trinity College Dublin and a Post-graduate Diploma in Technology Commercialisation from NUI Galway. I am a Certified Management Consultant (CMC).

I like using open, standards-based approaches when I need to use a methodology or framework to assist in delivering results for clients. That gives you the confidence that I’m not just relying on my own expertise and means that the work can be handed over to you or to others as the need arises.

I’ve used the following methodologies and frameworks “in anger” :

Programme and Project Management: MSP, PRINCE2, PMBOK

Software Development: RUP, DSDM

IT Governance and Value: CobiT, ValIT

IT Skills Assessment: SFIA

Business Models: Business Model Generation

New Product Development: PACE

In order to keep my knowledge current, I maintain these professional memberships:

Institute of Management Consultants (Fellow, CMC, Registered Consulting Practice)

Engineers Ireland

Licensing Executives Society GB & Ireland

Open Compliance and Ethics Group (Premium Member)

Institute of Directors in Ireland

I maintain Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance through Royal & Sun Alliance plc.
