ABOUT RONALD BLAHNIK

I am an authority and expert in how to run IT like a business. While my career focus has been the field of business enabling technology, I am also a retired C-suite executive business partner that knows and takes time to really understand all the business units that must operate in a cohesive manner in order to maximize outcomes. My consultancy has three broad pay it forward pillars:1) Board focused advisory – when you don\'t have a tenured CIO/CTO/CISO on the board and you desire another authority/expert to confirm or inject perspective to augment your thinking.2) C-Suite focused consultancy – when you face challenges unifying your strategy across all business units as well as getting the most from your investments achieving both short and long-term impact to include running IT like a business. If the need arises, I provide fractional leadership as well.3) Rising star(s) coaching and development – you have engaged or completed your succession plan -what now? When building leaders for the next level (C-suite and the next level down) is essential to business continuity and your success, time becomes the enemy.Put my 47+ years of corporate, C-suite, and military experience to work for you. Together we can leave the organization better than where you found it and ensure the enduring legacy of your company.
