High technology companies need leaders who act
decisively to create wealth.
In my 15+ years as CEO or President, in established
business (Fortune 50 Company), and Start-ups, I built my reputation as a successful and decisive leader who creates value.
My style in leading a business
is the unique product of General Electric
Company, McKinsey & Company and Start-ups. They each
provided matchless premier executive development environments.
In CEO, Jack Welch's world at GE "being # 1 or # 2 or get out" required:
- excellent planning,
- proper resources,
- flawless execution,
- and most importantly “results”.
Decisive action was a way of life for me at GE
and developed my "sense of urgency".
Later, my company CEO, Mike Jordan, and my Group President were highly skilled former
partners of McKinsey & Company.
Their McKinsey mentoring taught me drill-down
analytical skills that identified and tracked "relevant metrics" to
develop "compelling rationales" and obtain scarce resources for my business.
Most recently, to thrive at Start-up companies in many difficult and challenging situations, I evolved a chameleon like flexible style to solve
problems, raise equity, adhere to SEC regulations, make tax filings, maximize entity profit and create "dramatic
value".
By working in Jack and Mike's
unyielding worlds, and in the tough world of Start-ups, I honed singular strong fundamentals and developed preeminent analytical
skills and my "never quit" attitude.
Energy, a sense of urgency, excellent fundamentals,
drill-down analytical skills and relentless flexible leadership
- "tested and proven" - is my style.
And what
I "uniquely offer" high-tech companies to create wealth.
