Steven E. Fitch MBA
I began
my career more than a decade and a half ago in the Information Systems Technology
industry as a database administrator, where I learned the ins
and outs of database technology. This opportunity introduced me to a number of
career paths, such as desktop support (helpdesk), programming,
documentation (technical writing) and local area network (LAN) environments,
as well as the Internet to name a few.
Do you remember CompuServe? Prodigy?
Now that's old school!!!
Any
hoot, in a world of constant changing technology and business strategies, I
recognized and understood, early on, that decisions must be based upon individual
needs and goals - especially entities who have limited resources. To
that end, I truly hope to use this site and all of its parts to provide
assistance to small businesses and individuals use of technology as a more
effective business tool by providing a wide range of unbiased
information.
To obtain this goal, I have affiliated
myself with a select group of successful information systems’ professionals who
specialize in many different platforms, such as design and implementation of
hardware, software development, internet design and security, technical
writing, network operating systems design, and support, as well as other business industry professionals, such as
accounting, marketing, real estate, retail, etc… This
diverse expertise allows us to create an environment rich with the elements
required to successfully meet today's business requirements, while planning for
tomorrow's unforeseen advances. I hope to provide a refreshing and candid
point of view for individuals and small businesses via my
writings and case studies.
I have developed and compiled a number of
FREE
articles surrounding home PC users, as well as small business
owners from colleagues of mine. In addition, I have a quarterly published
e-newsletter,
xChange, that has over a couple
hundred subscribers.
The xChange has
the potential to become a wide-spread forum for home PC users and
small businesses alike. Recently, I have self-published my
first book,
Digital Divide:
An Equation Needing A Solution,
which
examines the
widening gap between those with basic technical skills
and access to information via computers, and those without
such access. The
book is available right now via
Lulu and
Amazon®.
I have a Master's in Business
Administration from
Keller Graduate School of Management (Chicago) and a Bachelor's degree in Computer
Science from Chicago State University (CSU).
In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, writing, reading and
all sports, especially
golf.
. .
In closing, I
am continuously working to identify other resources and expertise necessary
to achieve my objectives. I'm
currently writing a book dealing with Digital Divide. I have conducted extensive
research on the effects of minorities not being involved with technology today
and its affects tomorrow. My original research will be published soon in
technology journals around the world, as well as in local Chicagoland
newspapers. Stay tune. . .
