Our Mission
To empower organizations by aligning technology with clear, measurable business outcomes, ensuring every tech investment propels sustained growth.
Our Vision
A future in which technology serves as a vital bridge between business potential and real-world success—making it accessible, efficient, and truly transformational.
Tech Lens Advisors was founded to bridge the widening gap between business goals and the technology meant to support them. Too often, companies are sold solutions without a clear path to value—or worse, they’re left with tools they don’t fully understand or utilize. Tech Lens was launched to change that.
We’re here to make technology practical, purposeful, and measurable. We partner with organizations that want to grow, adapt, and operate more intelligently—leveraging technology not for its own sake, but for the real business outcomes it creates.
Our Values
Clarity Over Complexity: We cut through the noise with straightforward insights and actionable recommendations.
People-First Technology: We recognize that true innovation begins with empowering the people who use it.
Partnership, Not Pushiness: We collaborate closely with our clients, tailoring solutions that fit their unique needs.
Integrity in Execution: We are committed to delivering on our promises with honesty and accountability.
Value as a Standard: We ensure every strategy and solution generates measurable value.
One of the most important lessons we apply here is, success doesn’t come from going it alone—it comes from surrounding yourself with people who challenge you, complement your strengths, and bring their own deep expertise to the table. At Tech Lens Advisors, we are a network of seasoned professionals who’ve worked side by side on some of the most complex and high-impact projects of our careers. Through our Advisory Services, we help organizations make smart, future-ready technology decisions grounded in sound architecture and clear roadmaps. Our Organizational Coaching offering supports the people side of change—leveraging proven change management and communication practices to accelerate adoption and reduce disruption. And with our Professional Services, we implement practical, high-impact solutions with a deep focus on SaaS platforms, cloud infrastructure, and custom application delivery. Our mission is to help organizations not just adapt to change, but lead through it—with confidence and clarity.
Founders Message
I’m Richard Joseph—Founder and Managing Director of Tech Lens Advisors.
I’ve spent over 30 years working at the intersection of technology and business. My career has taken me through retail, government, education, defense, and professional services, giving me a firsthand understanding of how organizations work, where they struggle, and where technology fits in (and where it doesn’t).
Throughout my leadership roles—as a CIO, as a consultant, and as a hands-on strategist—I’ve built a strong network of experts, developers, and delivery partners that I can call on when a client’s needs go beyond a one-person solution. Tech Lens is powered not just by my experience, but by the strength of these connections and a deep commitment to delivering meaningful outcomes.
I’m not just about technology.
I’m a proud dad to four daughters, and you’ll often find me at the ballpark coaching softball, in the auditorium cheering on another spectacular performance, and generally supporting my girls in everything they do. I’m actively involved in my community, serving on the Indy Gateway Board of Directors and volunteering for local initiatives that improve quality of life and access to opportunity.
When I’m not working or volunteering, I’m often chasing the horizon—on two wheels. I have a deep love of motorcycles and cross-country rides, and I also treasure the time I get to spend traveling with my family, discovering new places, cultures, and stories along the way.
These experiences—professional and personal—shape how I lead, how I work, and how I partner with clients. When you engage with Tech Lens, you're not just hiring a service provider. You’re gaining a thoughtful, experienced partner who understands how to connect people, process, and technology in a way that creates real, sustainable value.
Let’s explore what’s possible—together.
What Sets Us Apart
Cross-Industry Insight: We’ve seen what works (and what doesn’t) across public transit, retail, logistics, and professional services.
Real-World ROI Focus: We measure success not by hours worked, but by outcomes delivered—whether that’s faster order cycles, improved inventory accuracy, or stronger team alignment.
Most Importantly, our People-Centered Approach: Tech is only as good as the people who use it. We bring change management and communication into every conversation.
We believe that true transformation doesn’t come from software alone. It happens when individuals across the organization—not just leadership—understand, believe in, and take ownership of the change. At Tech Lens Advisors, we don’t just implement systems; we build alignment. We engage stakeholders at every level, helping teams move from passive acceptance to active advocacy.
Our approach to change management goes beyond checklists and training decks. We cultivate internal champions who can evangelize the vision, reduce resistance, and accelerate adoption. Because when people feel heard, included, and empowered, they become the most powerful agents of positive, lasting change.
