United Focus

I founded United Focus Pty Ltd in 1995 at the very start of the Web to help people and organisations understand the Web and how to do business online. In 2011, after 15 years of working with numerous businesses, government agencies and not-for-profit organisations across Australia, I was approached by KPMG Australia to come on board and be a digital advisor to their clients. From 2011-2016, as a Director in digital consulting for KPMG Australia, I worked with a range clients at all levels of government, the financial sector, utilities and in private enterprise. The consulting was chiefly around digital strategy, risk management in the use of social media and raising awareness and understanding of digital disruption and what to do about it. I'm now back at United Focus just as the digital world is getting more complex and crowded and organisations are keener than ever to make sense of it all. My passion is the Digital Age. What a fabulous era to live and work in: unprecedented opportunities for everyone to connect, communicate, participate, influence, understand and simply to have fun. Sir Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the Web, take a bow. The trick to thriving in the Digital Age is to understand the opportunities, get to know what you don't know, manage it all and imagine what you should be doing differently.... "It's not fiber-optic to the home we're waiting for, it's imagination. Nicholas Negroponte, Being Digital. Today, it's all about mobile, apps, social media, digital transformation and being agile. Tomorrow - who knows?
