Chris Thorne is a Chief Marketing Officer and Head of Product (Apple) at Beats by Dr. Dre. Colleagues describe them as "Chris possesses an inspirational character of a true leader. People are naturally drawn to him because of his ability to spark motivation and unleash true talents. He is a rare person of integrity, never compromising for a quick gain, instead he takes the hard path and earns trust and respect. Chris is disciplined and isn't afraid of "getting his hands dirty". He gets things done the right way and stands up for those around him. Chris brought a fresh breeze to the company where lack of product vision created uncertainty of a future. He presented a clear product direction and inspired people around him with vision of success. In a matter of a few months he turned the company around and made its heart beat in unison. It would be my honor to work with Chris again."
