作為CEO,，我管理的業(yè)務(wù)遍布12個時區(qū),，每個月都要去很多國家出差,。所以我非常依賴能與人保持聯(lián)系的高科技。

無論是在洛杉磯和出資的合伙人開會,，還是系緊安全帶準(zhǔn)備飛越大西洋,，以下五大科技利器都是我的好幫手：

1、云計算管理平臺DOMO：假如你是經(jīng)常因公出差的CEO就會知道,，差旅途中最麻煩的就是聯(lián)網(wǎng)查看最新的財務(wù)數(shù)據(jù),。我不用把15兆的財務(wù)文件下載到手機(jī)上，因?yàn)镈OMO可以幫忙,。無論用什么設(shè)備登錄,，都能隨時查看公司當(dāng)前狀況的圖表概要，用戶界面相當(dāng)友好,。我可以瀏覽15處房產(chǎn)的財務(wù)報告,，或者了解總部的動向，實(shí)時掌握所有信息,。自從發(fā)現(xiàn)這個工具,，我已經(jīng)在所有設(shè)備上下載了DOMO，從此改變了我每月查看財務(wù)業(yè)績的方式,。

2,、運(yùn)動手表佳明 Forerunner 735XT：父親知道我每天跑步對保持工作與生活平衡很重要，所以最近送了我一塊新款佳明手表,。佳明最近改進(jìn)了導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng),，即使是陌生地方也能幫我規(guī)劃路線，合理設(shè)計跑步距離,。這塊表也會存儲我最近的跑步記錄（甚至能看實(shí)時數(shù)據(jù)）,，有空時可以查看健康情況。

3,、蘋果筆記本電腦MacBook Air：這款超薄電腦僅重約2.5磅,，可以幫頻繁出差的人士減少煩惱（比如機(jī)場安檢）。我通常自帶設(shè)備出席會議,，這部電腦也提供了許多商用的優(yōu)勢,，它靈活便攜，經(jīng)久耐用,，安全可靠,，不但存儲空間大，而且電池續(xù)航達(dá)到驚人的14小時,，即便是最漫長的商旅飛行（和會議）也能堅持,。最近我出入辦公全改用MacBook Air。傳聞稱蘋果很快會發(fā)布新版MacBook Air,，可能是入手的好機(jī)會,。

4,、手機(jī)配件Mophie對商旅人士來說，最糟的就是電池沒電錯過重要的電話,，或者重要的通話中途被掐斷,。我發(fā)現(xiàn)提供額外電量和存儲空間的Mophie推出一款名為Hold Force的新品，是有磁鐵的手機(jī)保護(hù)套,，其中包括迷你電池和信用卡或身份證卡槽,。想在機(jī)場候機(jī)室找到適合的充電插座有時并不容易，萬一飛行途中電池沒電很可能誤事,。因此Mophie成了我最依賴的工具,。相信我，我已經(jīng)試過Mophie的全線產(chǎn)品,。

5,、體育新聞應(yīng)用ESPN Mobile：最后，作為一名熱愛橄欖球的CEO,，怎么可能不需要一款出國還能追看比賽的工具,？ 我是佛羅里達(dá)州立大學(xué)橄欖球隊的鐵桿粉絲，最近卸載了SportsCenter改用體育頻道ESPN新推出的應(yīng)用ESPN Mobile?，F(xiàn)在我能輕松定制賽事和數(shù)據(jù)訊息,，不用解鎖屏幕就能跟進(jìn)。對我來說,，工作當(dāng)然要處理,，追蹤球隊的消息也不能落下。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

As a CEO with operations that span across 12 time zones and a travel schedule that takes me across the globe each month, I rely heavily on technology to stay connected.

Whether I’m in a meeting with our capital partner in Los Angeles or fastening my seatbelt for takeoff on a transatlantic flight, these are my five essentials:

1. DOMO. If you are CEO who travels often for business, you know that one of the biggest challenges is being continually connected to the latest financial reports. Instead of waiting for 15-megabyte financial files to download on my phone, I’ve been using DOMO. It’s a user-friendly platform that provides a current graphic overview of our business that I can log into from any device.I can scan financial reports from the 15 properties we operate or find out what’s happening at our headquarters — all in real time. Since discovering this tool, I’ve downloaded DOMO to all my devices and the way I examine monthly financial performance has been forever changed.

2. Garmin Forerunner 735XT. My father recently gifted me a new Garmin watch, since he understands how my daily runs are an important part of keeping me balanced. Garmin’s recently improved navigation system helps me chart the perfect course to ensure I stick to the exact distance I want to run — even if I’m unfamiliar with the area. The watch also stores all my recent (and even live) performance reports for when I have the time to check in on my health activity.

3. Apple’s MacBook Air: At just about 2.5 pounds, this ultra-thin computer makes some of the worst parts of frequent travel (such as airport security) extremely smooth. Since I tend to bring my own device to my meetings, this computer has many business advantages, including mobility, reliable endurance and security. With its high storage and amazing 14-hour battery life that last through the longest business flights (and meetings), I’ve recently completely converted to using the Air as my main computer in and out of the office. With rumors of a new MacBook Air soon to be released, this may be the right time to make the investment.

4. Mophie. There is nothing worse than missing an important call or cutting your phone time short due to insufficient battery life. I’ve discovered that Mophie, the gadget that gives hours and hours of extra power and storage, has just launched Hold Force. Hold Force is a magnetic case system that includes an additional mini battery and credit card/identification holder. You can’t always guarantee there will be an available wall plug at that airport gate, and a battery going dead mid-flight is just bad for business, so Mophie has turned into one of my most reliable gadgets. Trust me, I’ve tried and tested them all.

5. ESPN Mobile. Finally, what football loving CEO doesn’t need a tool to watch games when overseas or keep up with stats on the go? As a dedicated Florida State football fan, the new ESPN app that replaced SportsCenter, gives me an easy way to tailor games and stats without even having to unlock my phone for instant updates. Out of all the work on my plate, keeping up with the team can seem like a job in and of itself.
