Technology Strategy

As chief innovator and problem solver, the CTO’s value far exceeds technology skills. The CTO must lead as a highly visible first-class citizen of the C-suite. Still, many technology experts operate in a reactive, support-oriented style, struggling to command respect or assert influence—let alone executive presence. Whether setting the tone as a new hire or looking to redirect or revitalize an established role, one hundred days are all you need to secure long-term success.

Rich Chiarello offers sales teams tasked with selling technical solutions a proven program for success, based on the Sandler Selling System. He shows salespeople how to identify the most pressing business problem that their tool, application, or platform solves - and how to create a joint project plan that delivers value for both buyer and seller.

You open your CRM and find three versions of the same client. Your file system has a folder called "Final FINAL v3." Your spreadsheet has columns that no one on your team can explain — including the person who made them. And somewhere in the back of your mind, a voice is saying: I should probably be using AI by now. Here is what that voice isn't telling you: so should everyone else. And almost no one's business is ready for it. Not because the technology is too advanced.

You have read the headlines. Quantum computing will crack today’s encryption. It will simulate molecules no supercomputer can touch. It will solve optimization problems that have stumped logistics networks for decades. Every time you try to follow the explanation, the jargon arrives like a wall — qubits, superposition, decoherence, entanglement — and the tab gets closed. Meanwhile, the boardrooms, research labs, and defense agencies that understand this technology are already making decisions that will reshape your industry, your data, and your career. The gap between those who ...

A personal journey building Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR), a technology used to help protect critical infrastructure and enterprise networks.

In reality, attackers move faster than detection can keep up, especially when it comes to files.

Artificial Intelligence is the bedrock of the future economy and the new global operating system that will quietly power every industry, process, and decision. In The Future After AI, top-ranked economist and world-renowned futurist Jason Schenker explores how AI will underpin finance, technology, energy, healthcare, education, and business.

AI tools are everywhere. Clear guidance on what to build with them is not. Most people don’t fail with AI because they lack access, skill, or motivation. They fail because they never decide what deserves their focus. They keep learning and tweaking—while real progress stays just out of reach. If you’ve explored platforms, followed tutorials, and still asked yourself how you could monetize AI—it isn’t confusion. It’s a missing decision framework.

This is a 30-day execution playbook. Each chapter builds on the last. Complete the action steps, and you'll have a working AI system—not just theoretical knowledge.

This radical new book concentrates on the way in which each side tried to use or deny the sea to the other, and in so doing describes rapid wartime changes not only in ship and weapons technology but also in the way naval warfare was envisaged and fought.

Most entrepreneurs are running on fumes—trapped in a loop of doing, fixing, and catching up. You can’t step away without something slipping. Deep down, you know the problem isn’t effort—it’s control. The "hustle" is a lie. The path to a million-dollar business isn't working harder; it's shifting from Operator to Architect — building systems that do the draining, repetitive work for you.
