About STEVE
Hey there! I'm Steve Forbes, and I'm on a mission to transform the way organizations create value for their customers through technology and innovation.
With a career spanning systems administration, software development, product management, consulting, and entrepreneurship, I've come to realize that innovation is more than just a buzzword—it's the heartbeat of successful businesses. It's about solving real problems, building sustainable solutions, and ultimately, driving profitability.
Why Innovation Matters
Innovation isn't just a side project; it's a core strategy for navigating the ever-changing landscape of the business world. I believe that innovation, when done right, can be a powerful force for growth and resilience.
I've had the privilege of working at the forefront of innovation, from the hallowed halls of a global brand innovation lab, where I was introduced to Human-Centered Design, to steering the ship of my own venture, a technology professional services firm. These experiences have given me a 360-degree view of the innovation process, from ideation to implementation.
My Unique Perspective
What sets me apart is my ability to bridge the gap between different facets of innovation. I'm not just a technology enthusiast; I'm a problem solver, a strategist, and a startup advocate. My diverse background means I understand how to create value propositions, validate ideas, and drive growth.
But beyond the tech and strategy, I'm driven by a deep passion for making a difference. I want to help organizations thrive in this VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) world. My goal is to empower leaders to embrace innovation as a strategic imperative.

On a personal note
I live in Melbourne, Australia with my wife Fernanda, and son Nick who is keeping us extremely busy. Fernanda argues that my first love is actually football (soccer), followed closely by my love for cooking.
The Gallup company tells me I’m a serial learner and strategist. That pretty much sums me up. I’m rarely without a new book to read, checking out the latest tech on Twitter, or writing ideas in my Moleskin.
Through this business, I get to meet some extraordinary people with whom I can share some of my knowledge, but I’m also continuously learning. My hope is that I get to share my adventure with some wonderful people and we all get to make an impact around us.
