About Forrest Christian
Forrest Christian works with highly successful experts to translate their expertise, ideas and thoughts into information products that normal people “get”. While educated in the social sciences and broadly read, he’s also had career experience in technical roles such as software developer, computer security professional and business process designer. He’s honed communication skills in positions as trainer, consultant, technical writer, web designer, and project manager.
Project-oriented and multidisciplinary, Forrest has been recognized as an expert in technical domains and his writings have been translated into five languages.
Finding and becoming fascinated with the writings of Wilfred Brown and Elliott Jaques in 2003, he read deeply and wrote hundreds of pages for his web site, making these complex ideas plain to divers audiences. Through a chain of events, Forrest began supporting a senior requisite organization consultant, then several, then provided video and writing support to the 2005 GO Conference. In 2006 and 2007, he served as writing consultant to the editors and contributors of Organization Design, Levels of Work and Human Capability from the GO Society, ghost writing with or rewriting for about a third of the authors. In 2007-2008, he was a Director of TH3EL Pty Ltd., a Melbourne startup created by Warren Kinston, who was a colleague of Dr. Jaques at Brunel University. When TH3EL became a victim of the financial collapse, Forrest returned to his consulting practice and has helped several companies and individual clients understand their situations and get moving forward, including the Vancouver eco-startup Green Pages and an insurance company associated with the intelligence community.
