As the editor of VitAL Magazine I think a bit of background is called for!
For over 20 years I’ve been a journalist both writing and editing in many sectors (from investment to aero engineering to aircraft and medical IT and IT Services) and styles – including print and online for publishing and corporate markets. However I have been involved in B2B and technology since the mid-1990s. As a contrast I’ve also written in the arts and crafts space which is, perhaps, not so unexpected as I applaud innovative, creative thought and action.
In my work, I like the people, the ideas, writing commissioning and editing work; in short being a journalist. However, I get less pleasure from administration but it’s important, which is probably why I applaud technology!
More generally, I enjoy people, travel, the creative world, reading, home pursuits and most of all my family. Oh, and I’m quite partial to real ale, red wine and whiskey. Queuing and boring food are less interesting but generally I’m of the opinion that life is as good (or as bad) as you make it.
Last but by no means least, if you have an interesting story to tell, an opinion on anything related to the IT Management arena or indeed any suggestions as to how we can improve the title or the website please do get in touch: +44 (0) 203 056 4599 or john.hancock@31media.co.uk
Thanks!
