Bill Briggs, CTO of Deloitte Consulting, conducts hundreds of Fortune 500 companies toward a flawless sound. See how this self-described engineering geek helps hundresds of companies solve problems ad realize their ambitions.
Bill Briggs is very aware of what he must have looked like in college: with big glasses, ill fitting T-shirts, and a social scene he describes as “too much time in a computer lab,” the aspiring engineer fit the description of a geek to a T.
Today his glasses are far more stylish and his social calendar is much improved, but he still enjoys geeking out.
Professionally, his interests lay in the Horizon 1.5 (the next 18 to 24 months of developmental tech), as well as exponential tech like robotics, AI, augmented reality, block chain, and other leading innovations and trends that are transforming our marketplaces, governments, and the global economy.
At home, his interests manifest in similar ways: bringing STEM to life for his two young daughters, fixing and building pinball machines, and sometimes tormenting his wife with a never-ending parade of gadgets and gizmos.
But the passion he shows as the Chief Technology Officer for Deloitte Consulting comes from figuring out how to solve the biggest problems for the largest companies in the world. Needless to say, this geek has come a long way.
Most of you know Deloitte as an accounting and auditing firm, but its consulting branch has helped some of the biggest corporations and companies in the world embrace up-and-coming trends.
This includes pretty much anything from traditional large- scale, business-led, technology- enabled transformation programs to helping organizations understand and harness up-and-coming trends and technologies like digital, cloud, and analytics.
