You hire a leader — and inherit their network.
Global Digital is led by Mike McTaggart and backed by a network of seasoned CXOs and the specialists they trust. Every engagement is run by someone who has actually held the role — and who can bring in exactly the right expertise, exactly when it's needed.
Mike McTaggart
Global Digital is not your average technology consultancy. Mike is an industry veteran with more than two decades in digital business, and he leads with a simple conviction: technology only pays off when you start with the human side of the organization.
An alumnus of Duke University — a BSE in Biomedical and Electrical Engineering and an MS in Engineering Management — Mike pairs an engineer's mind with an operator's instinct for what actually moves a business. He's helped dozens of organizations, large and small, turn technology into growth, strategic differentiation, and teams that are more agile and effective.
A senior network, not a junior pyramid.
Your principal
A named, accountable senior leader who owns the relationship and the outcome — not a slide deck and a hand-off.
Your network
Fellow CXOs — virtual CISO, CIO and CTO — who've each held the role at the highest level. We assemble the right ones for your situation.
Their networks
Specialist subject-matter experts and implementers, brought in precisely when an engagement calls for them — and not a moment before.
The caliber of the bench.
We name our principal. We don't publish a roster — the team flexes to fit each engagement, and rotates over time as members move toward retirement. What stays constant is the seniority. A representative sample of the leaders we field:
Enterprise security leadership
Has held CISO roles at multiple Fortune 500 companies across financial services, healthcare and retail, with 20 years building and running enterprise-scale security programs worldwide. Holds a PhD in pure mathematics and stays deep in emerging technology and the evolution of information security.
IT strategy & transformation
A multiple-time regional CIO of the Year with 30+ years in IT leadership — including 20 as CIO and lead IT executive across three global organizations in smart grid, production mail-handling and specialty chemicals. Brings fractional CIO support plus hands-on help with operations, productivity and cost reduction, on a foundation spanning finance, IT audit and HR.
Software & product delivery
Thirty years partnering with C-suite executives and entrepreneurs to conceive, build and ship software. Former CTO of a venture-backed healthcare software company that processed billions of dollars in annual medical charges for thousands of providers. Recent work spans healthcare, logistics and education.
Your team operates as an extension of your own people — with the ability to flex as needs change. By personalizing the team to your requirements, we bring best-fit talent without the overhead of carrying it full-time.
The result: superior outcomes at lower cost, and the maximum return on every dollar you invest.
