The way something works today may not be proof that it's the best way to do it. I've spent my career asking why a system, process or business model exists, and what would happen if we approached it differently.
Where I Focus
Sixteen years inside the TV business, across operations, technology and distribution, taught me how work really flows from one end to the other.
