What is your main domain of expertise?

Application and system administration of ERP software and computer operating systems.

What issues in your domain call most critically for sharp thinking?

Decision making and business process formulation.

What do you know that could be of interest to the LessWrong community?

Most problems are not technical in nature; they are problems with the people and the processes. This could mean you need to change the culture, you need to train people, you need to route things differently, or gain a better understanding of the workflow. Too many people say, "Let's implement a piece of software and that will make everything better." No, it won't. Stop listening to the marketers and sales people and start analyzing your processes.
