Professional Experiences

For 3 decades I've been ascending the Information Technology ladder starting as a developer, moving into technical leadership, quality assurance, and eventually project management (PM). The world of PM launched me into the leadership ranks of IT organizations in a variety of industries and locations culminating in the role of CIO. Since 2004 I've also had my own consulting company (DAB Enterprises, LLC). I worked with several clients actively from 2004 until 2010 before returning to "corporate America".

My Education

Beyond my Bachelors of Science in Computer Science from RIT (Rochester Institute of Technology) and my Masters of Business Administration in Management Information Systems and eCommerce from St Joseph's University I have multiple certifications in various areas of technology from Project Management Professional (renewed multiple times) to Six Sigma Green Belt to Certified Scrum Master to Certified Disciplined Agilest to many others.

My Work Experience

I have worked in a variety of industries as noted above and began my career in New York (Buffalo), migrated to Philadelphia (Pennsylvania), up to north New Jersey (Basking Ridge), and eventually to South Florida (Naples and Fort Lauderdale). I've traveled across the country and across the globe for work and have been incredibly grateful for these experiences.

Do you need to Greenfield or Mature a PMO?

I have a Project Manager. Don't I have a PMO? Ahhhh, "NO".

How do I even know if I need a PMO? Do I need a PMO to help me control cost, time, and expectations within my organization?

Does my PMO manage my department budget, my vendor relationships, my procurement services, my legal obligations, and the overall strategy of my organization?

Should it?

Do I already have a PMO or OCxO or both?

Which is right for our organization?

This is related to a presentation and article I recently published on LinkedIn related to my consulting company's service offering of vCIO (virtual/fractional) work. Not sure what that is or means? Keep watching...

My consulting company (DABEL) can provide "virtual" or "fractional" or "interim" CIO services for a FRACTION of the cost of a full time CIO. Watch this video to learn more about how your business can capitalize on a "virtual" / "fractional" / "interim" Chief Information Officer.

Hint: It's not just a CIO you need but a LEADER of technology whether it is for strategy, applications, infrastructure, shared services, or a combination of all of the above.

Moving from "Bros" to Pros - What are some of the reasons the Information Technology industry is changing so rapidly?

Maturing industries over the last 10 years have radically changed the landscape of technology and it's NOT slowing down, it's actually (obviously) exponentially accelerating. Embrace it or be left behind and consumed by your competition.
