What’s been happening:

I'm now a General Parter at PerformanceEdge, a business development firm. For the last 27 years, I've been working in the technology industry developing market leading businesses. It's taken me all over the country -- Austin, Dallas, New York, Chicago, San Francisco and now Phoenix. I now live in Scottsdale with my wife Diane and three children: Blair, Courtney and Logan. The technology business was a great business to get into in 1980 and I have my counselors at PSU to thank for it. During the last 15 years, I've been lucky enough to manage three successful start-ups through their growth stages to $100m+ businesses, led two initial public offerings and created seven hit products. The companies I've run include Cyclone Commerce, SalesLogix and Novadigm (now a division of HP). Over the past two year before starting PerformanceEdge, I got a unique opportunity to coauthor a book that became a bestseller, Tuned In: Uncover the Extraordinary Opportunities that lead to Business Breakthroughs. Today, I'm a frequent speaker, consultant and instructor on the topics of leadership and business acceleration strategies.
