Hi! I’m Brandon Nelson. Welcome! Thank you for visiting!

Grüezi & Willkomme! Ich spreche auch Schweizerdeutsch & Deutsch.

This site contains some of my thoughts on IT leadership, strategic planning, enterprise & solution architecture, product management, lean & agile and more.

My philosophy

I am a passionate systems thinker, modeler, designer & decomposer. I like to understand complex systems and help others do the same.

I am a socio-technical focused enterprise architect and IT leader. Conway’s law can’t be ignored.

I am a lean & agile advocate. Feedback loops, learnings, iterative and gradual are the way to go.

I don’t believe in silver bullets or one size fits all solutions. There are no perfect solutions, only trade-offs.

What I do

I help organizations better understand, define and achieve their strategic outcomes, one step at a time.

My background

I am originally from California but have been in Switzerland for more than 20 years.

I have experience in IT management, enterprise architecture, IT transformation, project and portfolio management, product management, product development, solution architecture, IT security, cloud, IoT, systems engineering and more.

Most recently I have been working in the Pharma, Medical Device and Health industries. I also have experience working in the financial industry and public sector.

My location

I live in beautiful Lucerne Switzerland.
