Throughout my career, I have been involved in hundreds of business and IT projects and, each year, there are about 6 to 8 projects which I am intimately involved. I’m often asked by clients and peers alike, “What is the key to a successful business and IT project?” I think that’s a question that a lot of people hear whether they are intimately involved in a project or on the outside looking in.

However, while business and IT projects are complex by nature, I believe that there are many key factors to a successful project, I’m here to talk about one very critical key to success and that is the role of an Executive Sponsor (ES).

I’m glad you are here. This is my first post in what I hope becomes a successful tool for sparking some interesting conversations throughout the business and IT consulting industry.

First, let me tell you a little bit about my background. I am the CEO and co-founder of The Revere Group, which is in the business of successfully managing and delivering business and IT consulting engagements. I started The Revere Group in 1992 when I was 29 years old from, believe it or not, the attic of my home. Sixteen years later, we have grown into a 500+ employee firm with 9 offices throughout the US. I’m a 1984 University of Illinois graduate and have been in the consulting industry for my entire working career. I cut my teeth in sales and marketing and, over the years, have grown into the areas of strategic planning and operations in the services industry.

Come back soon to comment on my upcoming posts, based around my experiences as a consulting industry CEO. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and opinions.
