Chris Harvey is the Founder and Chief Research Officer of HR Technology Advice, an analyst firm exclusively dedicated to HR technology research. For more than twenty-five years he has held senior leadership positions at technology companies — spanning marketing, competitive intelligence, sales, and market research — and has spent over a decade advising disruptive startups and HR tech companies on go-to-market strategy and competitive positioning.

He is also the author of a series of pirate novels.

That second fact surprises most people who know him professionally. Chris is a husband and proud father of three — and, as it turns out, literally a son of a son of a sailor. His grandfather served in the merchant marines during World War II. His great-grandfather was first mate on merchant brigantines sailing from the coast of Maine to the Caribbean. The sea is in his veins.

Inspired by the lyrics and lifestyle of Jimmy Buffett and a lifelong passion for pirate history, Chris has written the Pirate Legacy Series — Son of a Son of a Pirate and One Particular Harbour — with more on the way.

When he began advising founders on how to differentiate themselves, choose the right customers, and build companies that outlast their competition, the collision between his two worlds was inevitable.

Blackbeard's Laws for Founders is the result.
