Real innovation requires a real innovator... 
Technology, without sound, informed management is, at best, a fascinating plaything. Management, without modern technology, cannot hope to compete. Together, they can be an awesome force. They can power the engine that is both inspired by and enables innovation, the essential ingredient that lets us improve on the status quo. 

Albert Camus once said, "You cannot create experience. You must undergo it." The better we understand human learning, the more we come to acknowledge that the best skills, by far, result from repeated and varied experience. This applies to consulting and information technology as much as it does to sports, martial arts and music. Jonathan Strong has extraordinarily broad and deep experience and a reputation as a serial innovator, leveraging this combination to help organizations reinvent their operations, improve, create new products and services, excel, compete and win.
“I have worked closely with Jon over 18 months. Jon is one of the brightest IT visionaries I know. He has deep insight into...the analytics, online, and development aspects of business. Jon was working on developing a robust platform for processing customers in an efficient and optimized fashion. The IT department always researched and tested the latest technology and methods for improvement. The techniques used were cutting edge and stressed vendors into developing innovative solutions."
- Michael Kaushansky, EVP, Chief Analytics Officer at Havas Media
