Do you need to learn the key points of a complex subject in a short amount of time, or need to know how to explain a highly complex and nuanced topic to others in a way that non-technical people easily understand?
I am pleased to announce our new free/ad-free/vendor-neutral report and audio series, "Technologies for the Busy Executive," below.
All reports (PDF) and audio quick briefings (MP3) are Advertising-free and Vendor-Neutral, and I have made them freely distributable under a Creative Commons License - "No Rights Reserved" CC0.
I hope you find them informative. Most browsers tested can play the MP3 files directly when you click on the links below, making them easy to listen to.
You can skip the ~45-second program introduction at the beginning of each audio, if you wish. This is mainly to identify the source, in the event they are reposted/redistributed. It won't hurt my feelings ;)
I recommend checking back often, as new content will be added to this site and other sections frequently.
I also invite you to connect with me on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobslovick.
My extensive and diverse technical experience, spanning over two decades, is outlined in my CV, but is no longer posted on my LinkedIn Profile due to privacy considerations and recent "geopolitical shifts".
