Tony Wong

President – Digital Onion Inc. and Founder of The Point Man® Project Leadership system

Certified Project Management Professional (PMP) and Certified Scrum Master (CSM).

Tony Wong is an innovator in the field of Software Development Project Management. With over a 14 years of experience, Tony specializes in revamping the way companies manage their projects to produce extraordinary project success which has created a broad demand for his instruction. 

But that’s all kind of boring.  Tony’s more interesting background roots are his study of the teachings of Zen which studying for years.  He also has experience as a Bukido martial arts trainer, and as an international and businessman in Tokyo, Taipei, and Hong Kong.  But perhaps the most shocking and interesting thing that informs his project management techniques is his familiarity with the principles and practices of U.S. Navy Seals hand-to-hand combat. People listen to Tony.

But that’s not all. It’s been a long road to hoe – almost two decades long – but Tony was just the joe to hoe it. Tony’s industry experience includes financial services automotive, media and publishing for a variety of clients including senior level PMO Director, program management, project management and account management positions on assignments for Disney, Toyota, Ogilvy, CAA, Fidelity National Financial, Honda, LSI Logic, Nestle, Weider Publications, Nissan, Bank of America, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Apple Computers, Honda, Lexus and many, many others. It’s a long list.  Trust that nobody knows that better than Tony.

Prior to founding his own consultancy, Tony was the Director of Project Management for Neudesic, one of Microsoft’s leading .NET professional services firms where he successfully led a 100-person consultancy with a portfolio of 40-plus concurrent projects to success. Before that, Tony led Honda Motorcycles to strategically plan, develop and implement their consumer-facing web presence for all Honda’s motorcycles, scooters and watercraft.  The results of this 2-year, 120,000 man-hour effort can be seen at powersports.honda.com.  All of this equates to deep and broad experience in complex enterprise systems integration projects comprised of 55 people and millions of dollars over several years as well as fast-moving, high-impact, massive projects like re-architecting Honda corporate’s digital communications platforms.

All of these companies have relied on Tony’s expertise in delivering products in a timely manner.  And through the years, Tony has come to rely on a very specific set of principles to help him do that. How did he come up with it? Through his years of experience, he’s been able to distill the things that work from the things that don’t, and the result is a revolutionary new way of thinking and working for Project Managers:  The Point Man® Project Leadership system. This is not a system for the complacent or the bored.  This is a system for people looking to Get Predictable Success.

  • Increase project profit by 300%
  • Reduce project timelines by an average of 40%
  • Increase your organization’s capacity to deliver more projects, while reducing project management staff
  • Develop and grow senior level Project Managers 5X faster than the
    industry average
  • Consistently deliver successful projects
  • Happier Clients who repeat business with you
  • Confidence that your projects will be successful

This unique system picks up where other Project Management methodologies – like Scrum – leave off. With Point Man, Project Managers learn to leave behind the old paradigms of managing and administering projects and begin leading project teams to success through integrity and fulfillment of the potential created through team work and camaraderie. Skeptical?  That’s healthy.  Surely you’ve encountered a variety of tools, methodologies, and, indeed, people claiming to have the Next Big Thing in project management.  Without getting to boastful, though, consider what these former clients have to say.
