Curiosity before conclusions
Understand the organization and its challenges before recommending a direction.
ABOUT CARBON 11
Carbon 11 is a boutique executive technology advisory practice built around a straightforward belief: organizations make better decisions when their advisors understand the business, the technology, and the relationships between them.
THE FOUNDER
C11Carbon 11 was founded by Jason Wilkinson, a technology executive with experience in CIO and CTO leadership, technology strategy, and complex program delivery. He approaches leadership with curiosity: understanding the organization, its people, its objectives, and the obstacles standing in the way.
His strength lies in connecting perspectives—recognizing relationships across business functions, translating between executives and technical teams, and bringing clarity to complicated situations. He believes effective leadership is built on trust: listening carefully, communicating plainly, challenging assumptions respectfully, and following through.
WHY CARBON 11 EXISTS
Growing organizations may have capable employees, trusted vendors, and established systems. What they do not always have is an independent advisor who can connect those pieces and help leadership determine what should happen next. Carbon 11 exists to fill that gap.
Understand the organization and its challenges before recommending a direction.
The objective is never a system for its own sake. It is a stronger operation, a better decision, or a more capable organization.
Recognize how people, processes, leadership, and technology influence one another.
Build relationships through honesty, respect, communication, and follow-through.
Recommendations should follow the evidence and the business need—not a vendor relationship or predetermined answer.
Direction is only valuable when people can act on it. Leadership means helping move decisions into execution.
