If Nothing Changes, Nothing Changes: The Nick Donofrio Story

by Nick Donofrio, Michael DeMarco

Overview

Guiseppe D'Onofrio emigrated to America in 1904, becoming a hatmaker in Beacon, New York's Italian ghetto. His third son, Nicholas Joseph Donofrio, served as an aircraft mechanic in World War II, returning home to become a guard at a hospital for the criminally insane.

Nicholas's son, Nick Donofrio, grew up to lead IBM as Executive Vice President of Innovation and Technology.

If Nothing Changes, Nothing Changes is a powerful testimony to our ability as human beings to drive transformation, not just within the realm of technology but across generations. With both heart and candor, Donofrio explains how he led IBM's global technical team to embrace a market-centric focus-redefining innovation and sparking worldwide collaboration for a new Big Blue.

Featuring cameo interviews with luminaries like Sam Palmisano, Jon Rubinstein, Lisa Su, Bernard Charles, Linda Sanford, Vic Reis, and Paul Horn, this one-of-a-kind autobiography will change everything you think you know about what it means to forge the cutting edge of technology.
