Neil D. Morris
Neil is not a consultant who parachutes in with slide decks — he's a practicing technologist and IT executive with 25+ years of experience building, deploying, and operating software at enterprise scale. He's managed 200+ person teams, overseen $50M+ budgets, and delivered $15M+ in operational savings across aerospace & defense, telecommunications, and sustainable technology.
A 2024 Colorado ORBIE Awards Enterprise Finalist and Forbes Technology Council advisor, Neil led technology integration during the Ball Aerospace / BAE Systems acquisition and has spent his career at the intersection of enterprise operations and emerging technology. He wrote "Why AI Fails" because he's seen firsthand that 95% of AI initiatives fail not from bad technology, but from missing leadership discipline. He brings that operational rigor to every engagement — no buzzword strategy, no innovation theater, just measurable outcomes.
