As a CEO of several companies from start-up to VC-funded to expansion-stage, I choose to play-it forward to help other leaders. I am currently CEO of WellCare Today (www.wellcaretoday.com) partnering with Samsung for the market introduction of the HealthAssist Watch (www.healthassistwatch.net).CEOs and business owners are often surrounded by people, a board of directors, partners, employees, but often it is lonely at the top. Where do you go when everyone expects you to have the answer? An executive needs a place to grow, learn & advance their businesses and to get input and advice from peers managing successful small to medium size businesses, especially when they need to make key business decisions. We all know that wrong decisions are often costly.I am able to step in and provide coaching and facilitate conversations that give these leaders the knowledge and momentum to move out of the day-to-day, think differently, gain insights, make better decisions, take bold action and generate meaningful results.As a serial entrepreneur and technology leader, my experience spans 3 decades of business leadership at all of the various phases of growth and development. I started several companies, had 110 employees and earned #32 on Deloitte NJ Technology Fast 50.As a previous Vistage member I benefited significantly from the collective advice and issue processing of my group. I am now in a position where I can make a difference in the lives of other leaders through this same coaching and collaboration. With Vistage, each member of the advisory board acts as a “private advisor” and part of the collective “brain trust.” Members become better leaders, make better decisions and achieve better results. In fact, member companies achieve a company growth rate that is twice that of the small and mid-size businesses in the U.S. and members stay 5 years.If you are a growth oriented leader, please reach out to discuss whether my Vistage Advisory Board is a good fit for you.

Expanding on our Population Health Management EcoSystem, WellCare Today, LLC has integrated "HealthAssist" technology into Samsung's smartwatches. Now family caregivers can monitor falls, medication adherence, heart rate, activity, sedentary time, blood pressure, glucose and weight changes in a Monthly Health Monitor Report. Seniors get the convenience of a one-press call directly to 911 or a simple icon press to renew their prescription medication.

I lead private advisory boards for CEOs, business owners and executives to help them step out of the day-to-day to think differently, gain insights, make better decisions, take bold action and generate meaningful results. As a result, our members experience new levels of intention, freedom, power, creativity, fulfillment and transformation. The power of Vistage is in the layered experience and built-in accountability: private advisory board + one-to-one coaching + expert-led workshops. My role is to select members for our peer boards, coach, mentor and provide a rigorous forum for chief executives to accelerate their growth and effectiveness. Each member of the advisory board acts as “private advisor” and part of the collective “brain trust.” The bottom line is members become better leaders, make better decisions and achieve better results.
