One of my most notable strategies helped grow Wonderware, a high-tech industrial software company, into a $200M firm with a major global presence and a leading market position in industrial software. We shifted our focus towards advanced systems and solutions rather than just products and rebranded Wonderware’s third-party industrial software network of distributors in over 80 countries as “Wonderware". In my leadership role, Wonderware's branded industrial software distributors and industrial system integrators delivered over $2 billion in value annually to the global market across more than 100,000 industrial plants in over 80 countries worldwide.
