Part 1 of 3: IT execs share the best pieces of advice Dad gave them and its impact in honour of Father’s Day 2021

What lessons did you learn from your father, or the fathers of others in your life, that have helped you get to where you are today?

From an army family my Dad joined the Royal Navy at 17 and didn’t leave until he was 65. Nearly 50 years and one of the longest serving officers in the Navy of that era, he stuck with the Navy through good times and bad. Times are not always easy and “jumping ship”, literally in his case, was never an option. That loyalty is something I respect and try to emulate. And that has always served me well in my career.

Something else Dad still holds true to is the phrase “if you’re going to do something then do it well”. He was always focused on doing a good job whether that was at work managing missile targets off destroyers or fixing up my first car to keep it on the road. That attitude to quality and concern for the best outcome is another lesson I attribute to my father.
