“From the warzone to board room, I was baptized by fire and temprered by wanderlust to resolve strategy games and puzzles to become the world’s leading proponent of strategic thinking through diagrams as a means of visualizing and modeling choice. I’m furious at how inadequate the language of text is for communicating abstract concepts and their relationships. A picture is worth a thosand words and one strategy diagram can express what takes an entire chapter or a whole book to explain.” ~ Briskey
Originally trained in Public Affairs with assignments to “tell the soldier’s story,” I was recognized for the ability to “win hearts and minds” and reassigned to psychological operations (airborne) with the mission of changing perceptions, beliefs, and behaviors among enemy combatants to achieve military strategic wins.
Several appreticeships to ex-Deloitte, ex-Bain, and ex-Netapp consultants plus an MBA in Digital Transformation doubled as practical and academic experience by resolving strategic dilemmas for over 90+ small businesses and a few Fortune 500’s seeking consumer insights, competitive intellingence and product management.
I now help innovators integrate the military’s most cutting-edge strategy design methdology with proven decision frameworks in management science for a “backcasting” approach to break the deadlock of analysis paralysis while expediting consensu building and change management within cross-functional teams.
