Design Talk (dot IE) 0221 - Local Impact, Global Reach with Joe Dowling
Our hosts today are Clare Mustapha and Akanksha Aravinda.
Welcome to today’s interview:
Today we’re talking with Joe Dowling, Chief Technology Officer at Sidero, a GlobalLogic Company.
· To start Joe, could you tell us a little about your career and introduce us to Sidero and Globallogic?
· What key lessons have you learned about managing outsourced/offshored delivery models? [e.g. Managing remote/offshore teams, what strategies have you found most effective for ensuring cohesive teamwork and productivity across different locations?]
· Can you talk about the impact that Sidero has had on Athlone, and maybe the value of setting up in a region as opposed to the capital?
· How has Sidero's acquisition by GlobalLogic changed things? [in terms of service offerings, access to new technologies, global reach, etc? What new opportunities has it created?]
· Can you share your thoughts on how Generative AI technologies are impacting software service firms? [opportunity, threat, same ‘ole]?
· Reflecting on your long experience working in software services and technology, what advice would you give to us as Digital Innovation students?
· Any final thoughts?
Thank you for finding the time to talk to us today.
