`Reporting to the President and serving on the company’s Executive Leadership Team,
`reestablished Arthur D. Little, Inc. (ADL) as a leader in technology consulting, linking strategy,

`generate an average of ~20% annual growth. Successfully built a strong leadership team and
`focused the business on the integrated services of technology-based consulting, technology
`and product development, and intellectual property management. Grew the business to about
`300 staff members and operated above target profitability levels (20% contribution margin).
`Drove a number of large commercial relationships that created significant success for clients.
