One level deeper ....

Reflecting on the 3 chapters of my career:

(1) Consulting: Business Process for effectiveness (4 years) and Technology enabled expansion (4 years)
(2) Founder: Product and Service Company founder (3 years)
(3) Founders right hand: GM, CEO, COO in Connected Home, Connected Health and Industrial IoT, product and service businesses.(10 years)

I believe diverse experience brings value in; effective execution, awareness of potential gotchas, and outstanding coaching.

Owner mentality: Hard working team player
Fast to growth: Identifies blocks, opportunities, and executes
Creative: An inventor, facilitator, and creator

Experience unlocks understanding

Experience pairings	Which led to a deeper understanding of:
B2B and B2C	Diversification of Channel, Margin, Business model
Retail and B2B	Need for succinct description of value prop
Consultant and Operator	Quick to diagnosis, aware of impacts of strategy
Big 5 consultancy and founder	80/20 impact of proven methods
Founder and Founder wingman	Tension of original dreams vs. power of focus
IP license and consulting	Sales process friction
Product and Channel innovation	Growth requires consideration of impact on both
Early and mature markets	The incredible value of usable segmentation
Fundraised Corporate and VC	Work required to prep and execute DD and close
Expansion and Focus	Growth comes mostly from more focus on less
Growth by Partnership	Partner motivation and structure incentives are key
