Welcome to 'IT’s all about choices', the show where my guest and I discuss our lives and our careers framed through the choices we’ve made, the good and the bad.

2023 mark's my 30th year in the workplace.  Those years have flown by, and as I hit my 30-year milestone, I’ve decided that it’s time to reflect on the choices that I’ve made that have led me up to today. I do this not just for myself but because I think it would be great to share these experiences to help others on their career journeys who face similar choices to those I and my guests have faced.

I’ll explore my choices and those of my network of colleagues, customers, mentors, and great friends who are willing to share their experiences via the choices they have made during their lives and careers in IT - or potentially elsewhere.

    In Episode 9 of IT's all about choices I’ll be joined by my former manager and mentor Liz Lyne.

    Liz and I met in 2010 working together for several years.
    In my career, I've been lucky enough to have some great mentors. Working with Liz and learning from her was pivotal to my own self-development and I hope I now pass this on to others. Liz was especially helpful when it came to my ability to read through the lines using listening and empathy.

    In this episode, we'll discuss Liz's career choices and her own journey working in the technology sector, our time working together and Liz's future choices now she is recently retired.

    IT's all about Choices. Episode 7 with Ricky Raithaha

    IT's all about Choices. Episode 7 with Ricky Raithaha

    In Episode 7 of IT's all about choices I'm joined by Ricky Raithatha.

    Back in August 2008, I interviewed Ricky, offering him a role in my London-based Service Management team. Ricky was excellent, the missing piece of the jigsaw, in fact, Ricky was so good that my job was done and I chose to move on to pastures new 3 months later.  

    We will discuss the choices that led to us working together and whether Ricky thinks I left him in the lurch! 

    Ricky has since gone on to have an amazing career, we'll cover how he switched from employee to consultant, and back again as well as his decision to switch his career from Service Management to ServiceNow developer. 

    So please join us on IT's all about Choices as we reflect on a myriad of life and career choices, working our way up to the present day, as well as exploring those choices Ricky is planning for the future.
