Bio
Ed P.
I know Ross by having served on the board of directors for Accellos. A great CTO has several duties, to name a few - technical liaison to customers, technology strategist for the R&D team, business advisor to the CEO, and advisor/guide to the board of directors. Ross is the consummate CTO, in fact the best with whom I have ever worked. He is loved by both customers and strategic partners. He effectively translates market dynamics and customer needs into a practical, profitable long-term strategic technical direction for the R&D team. He is adept at turning the long-term strategic plan into short-term bite-sized pieces that the R7D team can understand and tackle. He is loved by the technical staff in the company. His experience brings him the wisdom to earn the highest respect. His firm but caring leadership style makes people want to follow his lead. His communication acumen insures that the technical staff is directed properly. At the same time, he holds the highest standards for the technical team. The result: it's considered an honor to get to work at Accellos. His experience makes him valuable to the CEO and the board on the marketing and sales side as well as technology. In fact, he leads many of the key business planning meetings, especially involving acquisitions and partnerships. He is considered by all the executive team and the board as an essential contributor to all strategic discussions, not just those related to technology. Beyond his competence as CTO, he is also a joy with whom to work. His personality is engaging, and his work style is inspiring. I give Ross my highest recommendation.
