Peter B
Peter has been on a forty-year mission to abstract and articulate the art of value creation. It started with his study of economics at Harvard, where he learned to appreciate market research and critical thinking, and to construct industry points of view from competitive analyses and trends. With that knowledge, Peter launched a career in management consulting, which piqued his interest in organizations that were struggling to differentiate or that had lost their competitive advantage. With an expertise in transformation and strategic planning, Peter joined the world of information and communications technology and software development, working on value propositions, brand positioning, and executive communications for networking giants Telcordia Technologies and Ericsson. While at Ericsson in Stockholm, Peter earned a seat on the Ericsson White Paper Editorial Board, where he learned to talk the talk with some of the world’s leading researchers and engineers, translating complex innovations into compelling use cases that executive leadership and strategists could leverage in vision statements and keynote addresses. After a few attempts as head of marketing with entrepreneurial startups, Peter launched a boutique consultancy, Taraxa Labs, along with a venerated technologist from his telecom days, Adan Pope. Adan and Peter had logged twenty years of innovation and digital transformation programs together, which served as the foundation of their first book, “Respect the Weeds: Digital Transformation Rooted in Principled Leadership, Vision and Innovation.” The consulting work that ensued allowed Peter to develop and test a novel leadership tool, Tension Mapping™, which became the foundation of a second collaboration, “Intentional Tension: A Lever of Value Creation and Growth.” Peter’s authentic and conversational writing style is inspired by Wynton Marsalis in “Moving to Higher Ground,” where the artist and composer distinguishes between musicians who play the notes on the page versus those who use their instrument to extract an emotion from their audience. Peter hopes that his storytelling will not just resonate with readers but will also move them to embrace change in their lives and in the lives of those upon which they may have influence.
