Last Tie-Day of the Year plus the last Tie in my collection. Given the eventful nature of this week, here is the one Tie for special events. A silk, black, single-length bow tie.
(Also, the only Tie, which I have no idea how to show without my face in it ;-)

Tie-Day! It's Christmas Time! One of my relatives decided I needed an American Christmas Tie this year!

Tie-Day! Human-to-human communication is critical in a growing world. I had a great time this week at New Tech Northwest & Venture Mechanics Bellevue networking and listening to the pitch from CavnessHR. Of course, there is a communication-focused Tie for it!

Tie-Day! With the Christmas Season starting, there was the first holiday party of the year. Of course, there is a holiday-themed Tie to go with it!

This week, I had the great pleasure of moderating an AI for Board Members round table. For anyone scared of AI, my tie showed how it just takes one Byte to end AI.

Tie-Day! Small Business IT is the bread and butter of many companies in the US. On Tuesday, I had the great pleasure of presenting UCS to a group of partners focusing on making open-source IT painless for small companies. Here is the matching Tie.

Tie-Day! Yesterday, I had the fantastic opportunity to hear pitches from some of the most incredible startups in the Seattle - Tacoma Area! The event was organized by Washington Maritime Blue. Thus, a nautical Tie was the most appropriate!

Tie-Day! This week, I submitted a conference proposal, including a short video on Open-Source and AI: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzBYRzRYwhc
It included a fair warning that proprietary AI might control humanity instead of humanity controlling it. Given the growth, what better to represent it than a computer in a spider's net.

Tie-Day! Days are getting colder, and with all the mess around the world, the threat of quasi-state actors attacking IT systems is getting worse by the minute. When delivering this message to a group of Redmond Business leaders, I wore a woolen knitted tie as part of my "Stay Warm" outfit.

Tie-Day! I was out of the office for my son's birthday part of the week. Thus, here is a sweet and corny Father's Day gift from him from this spring.

Tie-Day! Cybersecurity sometimes feels like a game of space invaders. The enemies keep coming, and you desperately hope for a new upgrade or more budget. Naturally, here is the matching Tie!

Tie-Day! Cybersecurity should be child play for most employees. Thus, for the interview in @authoritymgzine , I chose one of my kids' favorite teddy bear ties. You can even see it in the video.

Tie-Day! Recently, I had the chance to talk with some of my state and federal representatives about AI, Digital Identities, and the recent SEC cyber regulations. Naturally, the Tie was more businesslike than I usually prefer.

Tie-Day! Shout out to one of our customers in the Florida Keys. I will wear my newest Tie when traveling to the other side of the country next time! Of course, it is also perfect for Labor Day!
#KevinsTie #Gratitude -
Tie-Day! Fresh from holiday and into another customer presentation. A second round in showing UCS, an open-source IDM, to the music industry, and, naturally, there is a matching Tie for it.

Tie-Day! Sometimes the least impressive tie can make an impact during a discussion. When planning a meeting with a prospect, I noticed their logo had gray and white diagonal stripes. So here is the matching Tie!

Tie-Day! Sometimes Cybersecurity feels like a lead and something unnecessarily added to a company. For my appearance on Tech & Main LLC Presents, Host Shaun St.Hill made me show why Cybersecurity is an asset and as easy as any summer activity pictured on my Tie!

Tie-Day! As someone, who has seen the corporate world as a Consultant, C-Suit, and Board Member, I enjoyed giving my input in CXO Magazine about why CIOs and CISOs should be part of the top management. The Tie for the second hand from my grandfather, who likewise knew the challenges of being in the C-Suite and on Boards.

Tie-Day! My Recording for "In Systems We Trust" with host Marquis Murray (Link: https://insystemswetrust.libsyn.com/70-the-future-of-cybersecurity-and-identity-management-with-kevin-dominik-korte-of-univention) was right at the beginning of the summer holidays and during a time of increased cyber-attacks. Both of which made me want to go on Vacation.

Tie-Day! Martin Miller and John Sukup have made it an art to make technical topics easily understandable on their Unriveted Podcast. For my appearance (Link: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2207427/13229427), I choose an equally artistic tie!

Tie-Day! When considering data privacy, sometimes it is better to have an unremarkable profile and not be fully invisible. That way, you don't stand out to human or computer observers. Thus, when being interviewed by the Observer (Link: https://observer.com/2023/07/what-does-amazon-do-with-your-data/ ) about Data Privacy, I chose an unremarkable Tie:

Tie-Day! With the 4th of July holiday weekend, this was a slow week. Thus, what better than sailboats and an American Flag?

It's Tie-Day. All dapper in the Tie-Department for the pictures for my Digital First® Magazine article. (Link: https://www.digitalfirstmagazine.com/emotional-rescue-using-human-nature-to-enhance-cybersecurity/)

Tie-Day. This one is on the boring side. I used it this week for the first board meeting of a new startup, where I'm an investor and Board Member. Also great to make me appear older and wiser ;-)

Tie-Day! I had an awesome experience at a kids' animation studio this week to discuss their user management! The two extraordinary things, they are a heavy open-source contributor, esp. around 3D tools, and both my kids are/were fans of their content. My Tie was a play on their work!
-
Tie-Day! Sometimes, we need a change of perspective before judging. My blue silk tie is excellent for toning it down and using the knot to capture attention.
-
Tie Day! As MSPs probably touch more computers than anyone else in IT, yesterday's Tie on the MSP Initiative (Link: https://mspinitiative.com/msp-initiative-live-with-kevin-dominik-korte-of-univentiond/) reflects that.

Tie-Day & Memorial Day! Whether for a memorial event or a presidential run, a red, white, & blue striped tie is seldom the wrong choice. (Disclaimer I'm not running for president. I'd rather be a crossings guard; at least kids say thank you ;-)

Tie-Day. For "A Geek Leader" with John Rouda (Link: https://www.ageekleader.com/agl-311-identity-management-with-kevin-dominik-korte), I displayed a Tie with some of the leading technologies over the years.
