Lukas Svoboda: Strategy, Architecture, Governance & Technology

It's official! I'm leaving Fronde as a Principal Consultant to take up a Senior IT position at Mighty River Power as Manager of Enterprise Architecture. I'd like to take the opportunity to thank my family, friends and confidantes in the IT industry for helping me with my decision – I'm sure I bugged some of you far too many times asking for advice. Thanks lads and ladies  - Bronwyn, Adam, Jon, Scott, Mark to name a few!

I had been thinking for a while about moving out of services. My thoughts were that I wanted to concentrate on a single environment and strategy to drive a longer term plan than what I had experienced as a Principal in services in recent years. During this time of contemplation the opportunity with Mighty River Power came up and I've taken the bull by the horns and decided to jump in. My first day is the 21^st of Jan 2008.

Good on you Lukas.

Would it be out of place to say more Power to you?

Good luck with the new challenges

Hey,
I have been reading your blog on and off for sometime and seeing many job changes by you and false promises by employers, that does not say well about the industry here and opportunities for senior technical people.

Seems to me, unless you want to get involved with office politics, it can be hard to get what you want just on technical skill.

You may be able to tell what's wrong from your inside experience.
Cheers
