The wheel only stops once a year for maintenance and it restarts whether you’re ready or not. People used to big IT projects will nod their heads sagely listening to this baptism of fire. And even non-tech people will love the sheer scale of challenges. And the measure of success?

His thoughts on leading teams and people, setting vision and guardrails, are as honest a “how to” as you will find.It was difficult to leave as CTO of Mastek but the new mission to support the drive to have great “Trace” in the UK to deal with Covid and the future and national health issues was irresistible.
