When you ask the CEO of Thoughtworks, the man who also built Accenture Digital, to write the foreword for your book, it feels a little like approaching the Godfather for a favor.
Fortunately, Mike Sutcliff said yes before we had to make him an offer he couldn’t refuse. Good thing, because we didn’t have one.
All joking aside, Mike has been a friend, mentor, and one of the sharpest minds I’ve known when it comes to understanding how technology transforms business. Having him lend his perspective and credibility to Competing at Machine Speed means a great deal to us.
Mike, thank you for the generosity, your encouragement, and your help bringing this book into the world.
And if you ever need that favor returned, you know where to find us. No horse heads required.
