“Jon was a consultant for the IT organization that had the best interest of the business at heart. I was impressed with Jon’s ability to build consensus amongst the business; often faced with an environment where the business couldn’t even agree on what to order for lunch! He led many sessions that drove programs and processes that are still highly functional today. Jon’s patience and professional persistence is what ultimately drove the success of our workshops. Jon’s repetition of shared perspectives and the ultimate goal of organizational and digital transformation broke down the barriers which led to business decisions and outcomes...it was inspiring to watch.”

“AeroVironment began working with Jon when the company elected to migrate CRM platforms. Our initial scope of the implementation was small and focused on bare bones functionality. Jon helped us to see that with a little more effort, we would be radically driving the adoption of the new system. His ability to paint a picture of how a process would be mapped to the system really helped us to see the bigger picture. This migration project to a new CRM platform was symbolic of the transformation of the business process at AeroVironment. We quickly saw that Jon was a champion of the business and made the technology conform to our needs, not the other way around…”
Brian Walsh | Program Director
“I had the opportunity to work with Jonathan on a number of initiatives. Through those experiences, I saw that he has a great ability to develop a rapport with both the business people involved and the technical people involved with the solution. He uses that ability to understand requirements and convey them to the technical team. Repeatedly, Jonathan’s skills contributed to the real results that were highly appreciated by the business. I highly recommend working with Jonathan and would jump at the opportunity in the future.”
Steve Munro | Senior Enterprise Architect
“Jon helped us to resolve a much debated technology decision. What was unique to his approach, and one that I have not seen since working with him, was that he put the technology second to the business process. We were so focused on the features and functions of the different platforms that we lost sight of the true objective. Jon helped us focus on refining, defining, and streamlining those key business processes that would then be enhanced and extended by the technology. Only then did we start focusing on the platform selection.”
