In today's economy, it is important to save money on IT, and to get the most out of the IT investment you've already made. Mike will show you how to squeeze the most ROI from the systems you already have.

So many organizations think they can "buy" competitive advantage by spending money on technology. They feel that simply by investing in a new computer network and/or new software, they will automatically start enjoying greater productivity.

If their existing system is very slow, or difficult to use, they may indeed enjoy some success from their upgrade, which serves to reinforce the idea that spending money on technology automatically gives them a competitive advantage. This is a dangerous mindset. Technology in itself won't produce huge changes in productivity. Confidence and communication are just as important. Technology can enhance the performance and productivity of employees that have:

Great confidence in their jobs and the company's products and services

Great communication with everyone in the organization and the customers.

“Yesterday’s meeting was on IT security, and it blew my mind. The speaker was Mike Foster, who makes complex ideas very simple, and distills security into manageable steps.”
~ Laura, Director of Business Development

“Mike, you created lasting value because the members of the group now have clarity about what they can do to improve their systems. The takeaway was huge. My guess is that you will be (if you haven't, already) hearing from some, for further help. I look forward to working with you again.”
~ Judy, WI

“This was my third presentation by Mike and they keep getting better! I think it’s a testament to Mike that my IT professionals want him back for another review! They want to show him what they’ve accomplished and find out new best practices in IT.”
~ Bill Litjen, President, GS Levine Insurance Services, San Diego, CA

“Some professional speakers can seem cold or aloof, but I was delighted to find Mike approachable, interesting, and easy to listen to. I found his information to be on the money and truly viable. After hearing Mike speak and benefiting from his insight, I know what I need to do (starting with an audit of our IT professionals soon!).”
~ Samantha, President, Kansas City, MO

“Attending Mike’s presentation greatly increased my awareness of the security situation in my business. Even non-IT types can understand Mike’s message, and after attending the seminar, I feel I can at last have an educated conversation with my IT guy. The ‘check list’ portion of the program was very good—I’m already using it!”
~ Quentin, President, Kansas City, MO
