| In
the early 1990s Bob was closing the first phase of creating a telephone
venture with the privatized Russian Space Command when he received
a call from a headhunter recruiting him to become Vice President
for Technology Applications at the US Postal Service. His mission
was to create new electronic businesses as the Internet Tsunami
first broke over a postal service that many called the dinosaur
of the Information Age. Bob became the chief strategy officer of
the USPS and served until 2001 when he returned to the private sector
and management consulting. He wrote “When a Turnaround Stalls”,
Harvard Business Review, 2002 about the experience.
Today Bob heads a boutique consulting firm in Washington (Transformation Strategy) where he works for clients in the US and abroad and he continues to write and speak about institutional transformation and managing innovation. |
