Patient Zero • October 15, 2019

Patient Zero is excited to announce Tony Fulcher has been appointed as Chief Commercial Officer. Patient Zero has experienced significant growth over the past four years and this position is responsible for ensuring the company continues to meet its growth goals. 


CEO of Patient Zero, Paul Briggs, states ”Tony has built a strong internal sales practice and contributed to the the commercial maturity of the company. In his new role as Chief Commercial Officer, I am confident Tony will continue to drive new business that delivers real client value.” 

 

Tony who joined Patient Zero in 2017 as the General Manager of Sales, says “working within an organisation which delivers extraordinary results is exhilarating. I am humbled by the fact that delighted clients are the rule rather than the exception.”


Tony was brought into the business to develop and drive a strong sales pipeline through the expansion of corporate sales and opening up the Government Sector. In this new role he will be focusing on strategic sales and account management, building sales channels, interstate expansion and the profitability of the business through development teams, consulting and managed services.


“Identifying the right client to work with is fundamental to the success of our client engagements and the sustained growth of the business. The right business at the right time is essential. All business must be structured in a way that delivers real client value and generates profitable revenue for Patient Zero.” Tony says.


When asked what excites him most about Patient Zero, Tony says “Working in an organisation which fundamentally believes in a flat organisational structure, with real empowerment and one which distributes decision-making authority to self-organising teams is extremely exciting. Meeting the challenges posed by a flat structure requires a strong culture and a less than traditional approach to problem solving.

 

To say that this is stimulating is a significant understatement. Not every personality thrives in a self-starting environment however when the right people are brought together the benefits far outweigh the challenges. Interestingly Patient Zero understands that the We is as important as the Why.”


Patient Zero is a Brisbane-based software development company. It has recently launched a new Managed Services and Consulting service offering in addition to their Development Teams. Patient Zero Consulting provides independent Technology and Project Governance services to enterprise level and Government customers. Patient Zero Managed Services offering has been created to support new and existing customers.

A friend and former colleague reached out to me recently to ask if I could help him fix a couple of bugs in a small project he’d been working on. He was not a developer, but had worked in and around developers for his whole 20+ year career as a business analyst, product owner and program manager. With the advent of tools like Cursor and Lovable his lack of coding ability was (maybe) no longer a barrier to getting some ideas he’d been incubating in his mind for a while, out into the world. With credit card in hand, he dived headfirst into the world of “vibe” coding. We met for coffee, and he showed me the prototype he’d built. I was quite impressed with what he showed me (running on his laptop…deploying it anywhere was a bridge he had not crossed yet) – a capable working prototype that demonstrated the ideas he was trying to prove out. I asked him about the “development experience” and he said it had been great at first, and he’d been able to make a lot of progress quickly, but at some point he hit a bit of a wall where each change he tried to make introduced more issues, and he felt like it was pointless to continue. He’d switched between a few different AI coding tools in an effort to see if the problems he encountered were specific to the tool he’d started with, but without success. The vibes had run out.
