I am an optimist who has been asked repeatedly to dive in and lead turn arounds of global businesses. Whether it is losing millions of dollars a month, has major client issues, is shrinking instead of growing, requires some M&A, needs a major restructuring, or all of the above, I have done it many times over. To date, as the “turn around guy”, I have led teams in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia at a scale of $2B in P&L, teams of more than 12,000 in over 100 countries, closed $15B+ in sales, and improved profitability by $600M+ annually. I have had the opportunity to live overseas in Europe and Asia for 9 years – bridging cultural boundaries, opening up siloed businesses, and leveraging next generation technology to differentiate in the market. My combination of technical depth, honed leadership skills coached by a great network personal mentors, and a highly refined skill in building great leadership and technology services & product teams has matured as we have solved some of the most difficult problems companies face. In my “spare time”, I board advise for about a half dozen companies at any one time. I am have recently been advising 3 next generation technology start-ups, 3 government technology services companies, a Fortune 500 global technology company, a board advisor for a company specializing in first time job placement in technology of people with disabilities, the Board of Directors and Finance Committee at the American Association of People with Disabilities, Chair of the Biomedical Services Committee & Disaster Preparedness Committee member, and a member of the Board of Directors at the American Red Cross National Capital Region.
