In the very first episode of A Smart Perspective, host Per Overgaard travels to Bonn, Germany to meet Christian Klie, Business Owner of Future Cloud Infrastructure at T-Systems. Known by many as a mobile network provider, T-Systems is in fact a major player in global cloud innovation—and Christian brings a wealth of insight from the front lines of hybrid cloud transformation.
In a wide-ranging and candid conversation, Per and Christian discuss everything from the challenge of balancing data sovereignty with innovation, to who should be responsible for regulating AI in today’s fast-moving tech landscape. Christian shares how his own passion for technology began with learning to code - just so he could play the same games his friends were enjoying - and how that curiosity has carried him through a global career that’s included an MBA in Australia and early roles in cybersecurity consulting.
They explore what it really means to be a tech leader today, and why finding the right talent is just as critical as choosing the right tools. Christian calls it the “war for talent,” and says that at the heart of it, working in technology is being in the people business. He also shares why he believes data is the resource of the future and why trust in the systems that store and process it is more important than ever.
From leadership philosophy to cloud strategy, and from career reflections to thoughts on the future of AI, this episode sets the tone for the series with insight, energy, and real human perspective.
