## A Year Later — and Just Getting Started

By Steve

A Year Later — and Just Getting Started

Hello Family, Friends, and Colleagues,

It has been exactly one year since I stepped away from the corporate world after 35+ years. I called it “semi-retirement” — my wife Lisa had other thoughts. Within a day or two, I was already on early morning calls with colleagues across the globe, working on what I call unfinished business.

A Passion That Never Stopped

Those who know me well know this story. From my earliest days at Arthur Andersen, I developed a deep passion for helping organizations make collaborative decisions that drive real growth. I was fortunate to be trained early in facilitating strategic and technology transformations — a skillset I later channeled into building my own consultancy, Strategic Connections (yes, back in the previous century — 1995, for my Gen Y and Z colleagues).

Over four decades and many career stops, one thread has always remained constant: achieving organizational alignment through people. Whether as a technology executive or strategic consultant, across every industry and every role, the Strategic Connections vision has been my backbone.

Announcing: Strategic Connections Enterprises Invests in LetSimonDecide.com

That lifelong passion has now fueled something new — and I’ll admit, something that’s been in stealth mode for the past year.

Today marks a major milestone. I am officially announcing Strategic Connections Enterprises’ investment in LetSimonDecide.com.

The initiative to help individuals make SMART DECISIONS was born over 15 years ago by a team of creative, passionate people. Over the last year, I’ve worked with a global team to revitalize and reimagine it — and I am thrilled to reintroduce it to the world, with many exciting plans ahead.

“There is no one better than SIMON to help people Make Tough Decisions Easier and Easy Decisions Fun.”

As of October 1, 2025, LetSimonDecide.com is back live — helping people make all types of critical decisions across every stage of life. We’ve already integrated new Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies and social media capabilities, with much more on the way.
