Bio
James J Formosa
Robert is an outstanding technology leader and mentor. I had the pleasure of working for him for nearly five years and was always impressed by the depth of his technical expertise across a variety of domains. He is particularly effective at setting and communicating strategy to his teams and adjusting processes to support the pursuit of strategic objectives. Through his leadership, we achieved significant improvements in customer service, product quality and timeliness of solution delivery. Robert would be an outstanding addition to any leadership team.
Susan Levy
A visionary leader, Robert's core strengths lie at the intersection of technology and its strategic application to the business. He combines skill, knowledge and an in-depth expertise across the disparate IT disciplines with a forward-looking approach that leverages both innovative and appropriate technologies. His emphasis on the Service Management components of IT strengthens great business relationships across all levels of the organization. A terrific listener, his consensus leadership style encourages open dialogue and productive teamwork. I highly recommend Robert.
