My passion is empowering businesses to succeed financially and teams and individuals to succeed professionally. I have had the privilege of doing that throughout my career in the healthcare technology fields, and education, both as an experienced business executive and as an adjunct professor in a top 20 ranked business school. There is not much in sales and business development that I have not touched – from M&As and turnarounds to startups and expansions, from rebuilding sales teams and processes to overhauling company culture and enhancing customer service. In each situation, I have defined sales and marketing strategy that has led to record-level outcomes. My key areas of expertise are focused on: • Shaping high-level sales and business development strategy that drives market penetration and expansion and delivers multi-million-dollar revenue growth. • Hiring and developing high-performing teams and establishing culture and processes that empower individuals to achieve business objectives. • Leading process and workflow enhancements and introducing technology-based tools to create structures to support successful teams. • Cultivating critical alliances and partnerships that streamline and facilitate internal operations and open doors to new business growth across multiple sectors.
