As follows in no particular order: 1. Stay active with a clear goal in mind. 2. Brainstorm ideas for innovation with team and beyond - MVP | Fail fast | Pivot. This will also help with self marketing and aid with the avoidance becoming labeled for distinct specialisms or role categories. 3. Report to executive teams in a way that demonstrates how IT targets map into business goals. Place consideration on time, quantity, scope, budgets and risk at the very least. 4.......because I like to add a fourth :-) Peter demonstrates why this initiative is so good and I am grateful for having the opportunity to take guidance from an experienced leader with a worldly understanding built on modern thinking. Many thanks!
