Hi, I’m Jon Beer, COO and Co-Founder at Zapnito. I help businesses to power Community-Led Growth by translating Zapnito's vision for curated expert communities into your own business objectives.  I have 22 years experience helping technology businesses to deliver digital experiences, so am always open to sharing my insights on making legitimate knowledge and expertise discoverable over the web. Let’s connect!

Switch Education is committed to learner-centred approaches to digital education by helping learning professionals deliver the best learning experiences and learning outcomes possible. Our focus is on helping them develop the confidence and competence they need to transition from traditional, classroom learning to contemporary digital education. By putting pedagogy first, we remove the mindset obstacles and behavioural blockages that often prevent the creation of dynamic, online learning content, courses and programs. Our design, research and development processes use our 3-stage change model that is underpinned by Social Cognitive Theory, a proven approach through its core focus on boosting learner and educator self-efficacy beliefs. For over 25 years, I have worked as a management educator and leadership development consultant in Business Schools, Consultancies and Not-for-Profits in Australia, USA, Canada and the UK. Launching Switch fulfills my lifelong dream of giving educators, educational leaders, managers and leaders access to the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to thrive. My approach to pedagogy is strongly influenced by social cognitive theory and its core principle of self-efficacy beliefs. Digital technology provides an amazing opportunity to bring my dream to fruition. I've published articles in leading organisational psychology, HRM and education journals and blog regularly on digital education, management and leadership issues.

Hi, I’m Charles Thiede, CEO & Cofounder at Zapnito. We help businesses power Community-Led Growth by developing our methodology and giving our customers the tools they need to get the most out of their platform. My background is in Healthcare Financial Services, Business Information & Product Development. Looking forward to connecting with you.

I founded my business on one transformative idea: The future belongs to software businesses that create products worth making a remark about. I believe something is broken around the way we view success. Too many software companies define their success by their size and quarterly growth figures. I believe success should be about the difference we help our customers create, and what we help them become as a consequence. Once that’s firmly in place customers turn into advocates and with that success follows, in volumes we couldn't have imagined upfront.

My academic roots are in economics and mathematics and my professional roots are in financial analysis. My background has given me a wealth of experience in research, data interpretation and analysis. I have a close attention to detail, innate curiosity and ‘big picture’ awareness that I use to support the rest of the Zapnito team in truly understanding our customers' businesses. My aim is to ensure that both they and we succeed.

For nearly 20 years, I've worked in the digital media sector, with hands-on experience in editorial, marketing, sales and R&D. I'm passionate about engaging and understanding customers to develop great content and products. Formerly Chief Product & Customer Officer at Zapnito, I'm now an advisor to the company.
