Hello world! I am just getting my site and my blog started today, so pardon the construction…

As a way of introduction, my name is Stacey Schneider, and I have about 15 years of experience working for some of the smallest and largest, successful companies in the world. I have worked as a business consultant, a services delivery manager, an engineering manager, a product manager, a product marketing director, and finally a marketing director. That seems like a lot of jobs, but really they all shared a common theme: to bring the science of technology to market. From companies like Siebel, Nokia, Fujitsu-Siemens, Southwire, Bell South, Embratel, TechData, Hyperic, Unisys, and more – I have worked to help bridge the gap between business and technology, usually using technology to do it.

So why start a consulting business now? The answer is – I like my work. While I have had tremendous experiences working for long periods of time at both Siebel and Hyperic, I really enjoyed my consulting days. I am a student of my own work. I am a problem solver. I love the spark that you get by working with different people. So, with my lessons learned in hand – I intend to work with several teams on several different problems over the course of the years. Some may be long term, but I shall not have a singular focus. And that will present me, I believe, with many more skills in my back pocket to share with all my future clients and co-workers.

Enough about me though! I promise from here on out – you’ll get more marketing thoughts than self-evaluation.
