Captain Caveman

On this exciting episode of The Cave Boat, the Captain lures four (YES FOUR) former State of California technology executives aboard his virtual cruise ship for a fireside chat over dinner on the fine evening of 5/17/2021 covering a variety of thought provoking topics. The episode gets into:

·  The Glory Years of Their State Service Careers (Highs)

·  Insights into some of the lows (voluntary red meat)

·  Pandemic Discussion: What we all learned

·  What Government Still Needs To Get Better At

·  When they all actually retire what they look forward to doing or not doing

·  Words of Wisdom

This episode is filled with jokes (a hearse pulling a U-Haul???), reminiscing, honest commentary and rich insights from leaders that have not only talked the talk, BUT ALSO walked the walk, mentoring insights and heartfelt perspectives upon reflecting on the many stops along the way on their journeys. Current or aspiring CIOs and leaders should give this episode a listen! And remember, relationships matter, have fun and that leaders are people too!

To your muster stations! :)

In his role, he is responsible for working with minority serving institutions, government entities, industry partners and a variety of affinity groups to build relationships that enable an increase in tech preparedness, grow the overall developer base and foster a more inclusive AI community.

Join Louis and I on a voyage with several interesting ports of call, including:

Lewis is a down to earth guy, and this episode offers humor, many insightful topics, words of wisdom and designer sock references. And yes, I got a chance to listen to A$AP Ferg. Time to find a shovel! LOL

Best of all, what you'll hear from him about these accolades is that they were all a product of team success - remember, it starts with the people.
