I help civil society with online collaboration, transparency, and accountability.¶
Your team and your partners support citizens, civil rights, culture, and society. Can a new and emerging technology help you?¶
-
Improve efficiency and productivity
Make teams work smarter: design social interactions and work processes, before you select or build technical components.
-
Boost satisfaction and well-being
Make teams happier: develop inclusive experiences based on organisational culture and diverse stakeholder perspectives.
-
Be ready for future developments
Be adaptable and agile: anticipate how new technologies create new organisational and political challenges and opportunities.
I have worked with international civil society for over 30 years, and I am happy to share my experiences and insights.
If you'd like to discuss your situation with me, let’s find a suitable time to talk.
I care about public interest technology and digital public goods. As a socio-technical engineer, my focus is on connecting people, processes, and tools. I do that in various roles:
-
As a technical advisor or business analyst¶
Navigate the world of collaboration and data tools, and find solutions that work for you. For instance, I can assess your IT landscape and make recommendations, or develop prototypes for specific problems. I can also provide support to expand your IT capacity, create RFPs, liaise between business and IT, or do technology research.
-
-
As a facilitator or trainer¶
Improve collaboration and communication with partners and stakeholders worldwide. For instance, I can plan and organise online discussions and consultations, or offer courses trainings on new internet technologies, social media platforms, and data tools. I can help your staff and partner organisations prepare for the latest online developments.
-
As a web development coach¶
Improve your web development services for your clients. Whether you need to be up-to-date on Docker or cloud services, modern version control for your source code, or tools like automated testing, I can coach you to develop the skills and tools.
-
As a trailblazer¶
There will be a “New Technology for Good”, promising to solve a societal problem: the web, mobile, social media, open data, robots, blockchain, drones, AI, and so on. I can help you with the hype cycle, and assess who really understands the problem.
