Ready to collaborate with your organization on knowledge and wisdom strategies
Knowledge Management. With more than 40 years of experience in ICT, I would be happy to collaborate with your company on Knowledge Management projects, both ICT and not ICT related, supporting your team.
From Knowledge to Wisdom. Wisdom should be part of any business strategy. Let’s work together, along with your corporate social responsibility (CSR) team, to face the unavoidable challenge of making a better world.
Neorural Society. Develop your programs, knowledge and wisdom strategies while participating in the nonprofit initiative Neorural Society for Fire Prevention. Experience contact with nature, collaboration, team building, and more, as a methodology for sharing and creating knowledge. Let’s do it together.
Ideas. ‘Know yourself’. I am a creative person with IDEAS, so I especially seek to participate in any sort of project (architecture, politics, town planning, landscaping, innovation, etc.) where a creative IDEA could contribute to a superior success.
Fees based on results. In participation with your team, my experience and imagination may help in your project’s success. For this reason, we can arrange minimum fees for project participation and have a final agreement for fees, according to project success and customer satisfaction (see testimonials).
Professional
ICT Professional. Working uninterrupted since 1977 as an ICT professional (the “C” for “Communications” came some years after “IT” became the common term for “Information Technology”), I’ve been in a state of permanent transition from very technical to more managerial positions (programmer, analyst, electronic data processing manager, manager of information systems, project manager, consultant, knowledge manager, vendor manager, university professor…).
For most of my professional life, since 1987, I have been a member of multinational teams participating in projects in Portugal, France, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, England, Ireland, Austria and other countries across Europe and Latin America.
Professor
Since 2000, I have been studying, teaching, working on and loving Knowledge Management.
Always open to university collaborations.
