More than 30 years in the tech industry and serving as CEO of five industry leaders has taught me that every company faces the “tyranny of the urgent”, where everyday challenges consume and often blind the team to their true potential. The key to unlocking rich skills and talents hidden within an organization is to set a clear path to conquer the important and avoid being consumed by the urgent. A leader’s job is to set the path. I focus on creating a deep bench of leaders, and I concentrate my time on strategy development, product/market direction, sales and corporate growth.

I have served on public and private company boards of directors and I am currently serving on two advisory boards. I have built and led teams across the globe and executed M&A transactions in the U.S., Israel, China, and the UK. I have experience selling through both direct sales and channel partners, and I have held the CRO position in a hybrid selling environment. With demonstrated success and broad-ranging, hands-on experience across all functional areas of the business, I have been referred to as a "CEO Whisperer" with the ability to assist CEO's as a peer and advisor.
