I’ve been posting for a while and am really overdue for introducing myself.
My name is John Hack, and I live in a small town in New Jersey, close to NYC.
I starting programming for fun in 1971, and have spent my career building and implementing networked business information systems. Short version: Route 128, Silicon Valley, Wall Street, Internet Consulting; most recently working for a software startup acquired by a global software giant two months ago.
I discovered the joys and challenges of managing when I was made supervisor at my undergraduate school’s cafeteria. Majoring in Econ was absolutely no help. Years later, after managing the information systems for a new trading floor, I got my masters degree in management of technology. I’ve managed organizations as large as 60, and as small as myself.
Manager Tools is a great community, and a rare find. Smart, sincere people dedicated to making the world a better place to work.
