November 1994 to June 1996
CRT Multimedia, London.
The company developed intuitive mass market and corporate technology applications.

My tasks were to manage a change from the existing culture to that of a corporate company; to mentor, manage and grow the in-house product development team; to manage the design of products and development of a publishing engine; and to reduce production costs by developing tools and more efficient production processes.

The first product, Easy Tutor Learn Windows 95, became the best selling Windows 95 training application for the global consumer market and was awarded a gold award at BIMA.

Production costs for further products were reduced by over 75%.

I also helped to develop the following products using the publishing engine.

  • Easy Tutor Learn Office 95
  • Easy Tutor Lean Word 95
  • Easy Tutor Learn Excel 95
  • Easy Tutor Learn the Internet
