Haim Kilov’s Summary

Recognized authority in business domain modeling and in business and system requirements. Experienced senior consultant and thought leader with many blue chip multinational clients. Developed conceptually clear and elegant business domain and process models in finance, insurance, document management, telecommunications, HR, etc., used as the basis for strategy assessment, decision making, business process change, and system development. My business domain and process models demonstrably led to understanding, formulating and evaluating customer state-of-affairs, needs and problems, and to finding successful solutions for these problems. By using approaches and concepts understood by both business and IT experts, bridged the gap between business and IT in customer engagements. Successfully managed client relationships up to board level and delivered high quality results within pressurised and changing environments. Facilitated planning and design of knowledge management strategies and specific projects. Co-authored articles about my engagements with customer representatives. Created innovative curricula and taught courses and tutorials in various industrial settings, including courses on data and knowledge management with a strong emphasis on data quality and business modeling in the Master of Science in Information Systems program at Stevens (on and off campus). Author of several widely used books (e.g., "Business models" - Prentice-Hall, 2002; "Practical foundations of business system specifications" - Kluwer, 2003). Major contributor to international standards such as RM-ODP (Reference Model of Open Distributed Processing), GRM (General Relationship Model), UML profile for EDOC (Enterprise Distributed Object Computing). Invited author on business and IT modeling of the Encyclopedia of Information Science and Technology (2009). My favorite authors include, among others, Lewis Carroll, Adam Smith, Friedrich August von Hayek, Mario Bunge, and Edsger Wybe Dijkstra.
