Pete Cotton
Enablis Chief Customer Offer
I’ve spent my career building and delivering technology solutions at an enterprise level – but it is easy to overlook the needs of those who could benefit the most. The work I do with AbilityNet not only increases my awareness, it also develops those skills that are fundamental to any technology professional – patience, empathy and the need to distil complex concepts into simple language that others can follow.
