Mike Styer

About

I help organisations identify and implement enterprise IT solutions that address their needs and budgets. With an extensive background in both the vendor and customer IT platforms and environments, I bring a broad and objective view to Strategic Leadership and Tactical Execution, Sales and Buying Cycles, Solution Delivery, Architecture Planning and Infrastructure/Application Design and Integration. My strengths lie in my ability to identify needs through strategic assessments, and then to develop, propose and lead objective solutions. I have a strong understanding of IT Architectures, Application Identification, Implementation, Integration and Management IT Infrastructure, Storage, Server, Software and technology disciplines, their future trends and their capabilities. I’m ITIL certified, have managed large teams of operational staff as well as smaller to medium sized teams of specialised sales and technical/architecture professionals and use a hands on leadership approach. I’ve spoken and presented at many conferences, developed white papers for a number of forums and work groups on various related topics and have been regularly published in the South Africa IT press.
