Tech Noise: Recent Episodes
Abstract
Emerging technologies like Virtual and Augmented reality are, well…emerging. Brian Bogus, CEO of Abstract, a tech company located in Magnolia, Texas joins Eric Roetzer, Director of Production to discuss these technologies and their applications.
We get past the same-old Baby Boomer/Millennial drama and talk about generational learning styles, why they matter, and how to create a business case to pitch a decision-maker with the best chance of approval. Understanding generational similarities and differences can be critical to achieve project sign-off.
We also talk about calculating business value, and the importance of showing decision makers the ROI on a project. Getting that $3 million dollar project approved is a lot easier when you can show a $9 million return on investment estimate over three years. What are you waiting for? Let's dive into episode 4 of the Tech Noise podcast by Abstract.Tech.
