Marlin Dolinsky is a former graduate-level
professor in management psychology and technology at three California
universities. A software engineer, graphic artist, and clinical
psychologist by training, his unique combination of hard skills
and soft skills provide a more-informed perspective on effectively
implementing technical projects. Marlin is credited with inventing
in 1973 the sound flip-flop circuit commonly known through TV
ads as The Clapper. He is a management consultant, a Certified
Enterprise Java Programmer, J2EE architect, UML expert, Web services
designer and the highest-rated Java Programming instructor for
Learning Tree International.
Marlin’s doctoral research included
analysis of cognitive architectures of the brain. His study
suggests that information technology is evolving along the
same path that brain research has already covered. His work
suggests IT business and technology failures are rooted in
an alarming lack of understanding in how people think and make
decisions.
Prior to joining NetWEB Elite Solutions,
Marlin has worked with nuclear scientists at GE Medical Magnetic
Resonance Imaging labs, and with programmers, software architects,
team leads, and executive levels at EMC, IBM, AOL-Time Warner,
Aspen Technologies, Verizon, John Deere, PacBell, Accenture,
US Marines, US Army, US Navy, KPMG, Verizon, Telcordia, Abercrombie & Fitch,
Moog Controls, the Pentagon, FBI, Federal Reserve Bank, SunGard,
Northern Trust Bank, Harvard University, Cornell University,
Loma Linda University Medical Center, and many others.
Over a 5-year period, as a management consultant with an international
firm, he conducted face-to-face interviews with the top leaders
of 1000 companies from small startup to Fortune 100 on IT strategy
and leadership development issues.
Marlin is best known for his participation
with Boeing and Daiwa Bank in The London Project, a groundbreaking
artificial intelligence research endeavor trying to capture
in code the decision-making skills of some of Europe’s best foreign-market traders.
The resulting set of 21 distinctly different mental methods (processes)
fall into 3 major qualitatively different groupings. The objectively
measurable 21 mental methods can graphically map a person’s
thinking preferences to that which a task most needs. The better
the match, the more effective the performance., a first in people-to-technology
management measures. He is now customizing this tool for the
U.S. Navy.
Marlin currently resides in Southern California. |
