Alan Baldwin is a Board Member at Call of Duty Endowment. He possess expertise in strategy, leadership, program management, defense, government and 45 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "IBM's Global Defense team drives and coordinates defense business worldwide for over 20 large country team accounts and many smaller ones. Alan was the linchpin connecting all those diverse teams in a myriad of ways, his importance and impact can't be overstated. He not only built the metrics to assess the progress and growth of the accounts, but provided thoughtful analysis and provided key insights as well. Alan developed recommendations for strategic positioning and identified the critical solutions that made accelerating growth possible. He left his imprint everywhere, from nurturing a growing Tactical Data Links business to being the main driver of IBM's SPADE Defense conference from agendas to logistics to budgets. Alan's impact in all areas of IBM's defense business was remarkable. I couldn't recommend anyone higher for a position that requires self direction, resourcefulness and utter dependability." and "I worked closely with Alan between 2007 and 2017. Alan and I have had a variety of roles during this time. Alan has taken several “Chief of Staff” roles in Global Defence and Government; I have taken a variety of subject matter expert roles in Defence, National security, Public safety, core technologies and more recently blockchain. Alan’s “Chief of Staff” role is constantly challenging, requiring him to balance the needs of IBM, his manager and the team(s) he is supporting. Alan has consistently executed this role with good humor, diligence, professionalism and drive. He never loses sight of the strategic goals for IBM and his immediate business unit and successfully prioritizes his time and effort to achieve true excellence. His networking skills are exemplary. Alan is the master at using them to get the most from IBM colleagues where he has no authority to direct. Alan is also a wonderfully thorough & gifted organizer. The outstanding success of several global customer (SPADE) conferences he organized – involving the most senior IBM executives and customers – is the best testament to these skills. I have found working with Alan a real inspiration and a constant pleasure. I can think of no one better than he at executing this type of role in a thorough, diligent and professional manner."
