Thank you for visiting. I’m pleased you’re here.
I am an Innovative Business Leader, with the ability to step back, look at a problem, and come up with a fresh approach. Examples of my work have included new pricing models; follow-the-sun license programs; recovery of $$ multi-million dollar transactions; and, simply seeing what others have not.
You are a hero to your customers. Your solutions make their lives easier. Along the way you are going to have challenges to overcome, goals to achieve, and things in your way. I am here to help you be successful, to be your enabler.
My efforts often involve:
- Team building;
- Changing product direction;
- Changing technology platforms;
- Addressing business processes; and,
- Being an your evangelist.
My key strengths include team building; comfort working cross-functionally, internally and externally; being an effective communicator (including public speaking); and, bridging the chasm between technical and business worlds. My education includes an undergrad in Computer-Aided Design, focused on software development; and an MBA, focused on Technology Management.
With industry experience in software, SaaS (Software as a Service), Manufacturing, and business process management, I provide a well-rounded background that can immediately add value enabling your own efforts.
I encourage you to contact me.
