Detoxing the Project Culture: How Consulting Skills Cure the Miscommunication Epidemic
In the world of digital transformation services, the disease affecting system integrators everywhere is an addiction to miscommunication. Unknowingly, it is secretly costing the system integrators the ability to deliver consistent project outcomes, retain client trust, and build high-performing teams.
In this talk, Steve revisits real-world stories of project misfires and digs deep into the consulting skills that every IT professional and consultant can implement immediately to bring clarity, alignment, and momentum to their projects. With a focus on practical application over theory, he unpacks the subtle habits that derail communication and shows how small shifts in language, presence, and listening can radically improve client trust and team performance. Whether you're leading delivery or advising from the sidelines, this session equips you with the tools to lead with intention and communicate with impact.
