About
Steve Prentice
For over twenty years, I have focused on the interaction between human beings and technology: how we adapt and work with new technologies, and how this affects work, productivity, and interpersonal relationships. As a specialist in organizational psychology and project management, I have extensive experience in change management, project management, time management and implementation of business technology across a wide range of industries. My company, The Bristall Company, regularly pulls together the best and worst practices of employers around the world and matches that up with technological and social change.
