Apologies to all for going dark.

I'm currently working with a client on an enterprise project, and they're not excited about my blogging on related issues. Plus I have no time (shoemaker's children problem). I'm working on that, and hope to be back online soon.

About Me

I'm Marc Danziger, a social-media and technology strategist for hire (and you should hire me). I've been thinking up, designing, and managing the development of technology projects for over 15 years with major projects in healthcare, media, automotive, retail, and politics.

Recently, I've done work for Inc. and Fast Company magazines, Warner Music, Manpower, Central DuPage Hospital, and Florida Hospitals, among others.

I focus on two areas: developing technology strategies - typically strategies for customer and stakeholder engagement; and organization to improve technology delivery. I've also done quite a bit of troubled project recovery, as well as straightforward project delivery management. I'm a strong advocate of agile methodologies, and am a certified ScrumMaster.

Charmed Particles, Inc. is my company (the name comes from my early fascination with physics), and it has been in operation for almost 20 years.
