Phil McKinney, an Innovation Consultant, has held innovation leadership positions in a number of companies, most recently as the Vice President and Chief Technology Officer for Hewlett-Packard’s (HP) $40B Personal Systems Group, where he was responsible for long-range strategic planning and research and development for all of the company’s PC product lines, including mobile devices (phones, tablets, etc), notebooks, desktops, and workstations.

Over the course of his career, he has been profiled or had his
work on innovation written about in media outlets ranging from tech press to Vanity Fair, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. McKinney also writes a column for Forbes called “The Objective,” hosts a popular
Killer Innovations podcast that CIO Insight has called “a must listen,” and tweets from his @philmckinney handle. A sought after keynote speaker, McKinney gives over 100 talks
or workshops a year.

Vanity Fair named McKinney “The Innovation Guru;” MSNBC and FOX both call him “The Gadget Guy;” and Laptop Magazine named him as one of the “25 Most Influential People in Mobile Tech” in 2010. His uncanny ability to predict what’s coming next caused The San Jose Mercury News to dub him “the chief seer.” McKinney’s podcast has been recognized as one of the “Top 10 Business Podcasts” for three years running.
