Joseph Ward is a Senior Vice President, Product at RedSeal, Inc. at RedSeal, Inc.. He possess expertise in network security, product management, encryption, cloud computing, ips and 27 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "If you need a truly outstanding executive to navigate your product and company to success with intelligence and agility -- Joseph is your guy! Joseph is a unique talent: He has a phenomenal combination of strategic product vision, technical depth, market expertise (he either has it or gets it), the ability to get things done, the mind of the customer, and fantastic wit. All of that is pretty important when you're being tasked with making sense of a sizeable and disjointed product portfolio and muddy market message in a category-creating company -- especially the wit. Product and marketing simply have to be aligned for success, and nowhere was that more true than at Ionic. For that to happen, the great working relationship we had was critical. It wasn't always roses and sunshine because of what needed to be done, but even in disagreement, we could effectively work through to a better answer. I very much respect his opinion, not just because of the traits mentioned above, but also his process and ethics. I would happily welcome the opportunity to work together again.", "I have had the great pleasure of working with Joseph on two separate occasions. First, briefly while consulting at Damballa, and then at Cybraics. At Damballa I got to see the impressive result of Joseph's skillset and vision applied consistently over years -- a mature, thorough, and professional product organization producing top quality products. At Cybraics I have seen Joseph start from a blank slate and product everything from long-term roadmaps to the kind of detailed product requirements my engineering team loves. Joseph demonstrates extensive knowledge of the market -- specifically information security products in our time together, but I have no doubt he would quickly develop the same in any field. He couples that with a fluency in business strategy, hands-on skill in technology, and understanding of the customer to provide believable leadership to the company as a whole. He is confident and persuasive because he has done the work to back up his assertions. Saving the best for last: Joseph's fundamental quality is a constant drive to do the "right thing", and that belief that real lasting success necessarily derives from that. Rather than allowing the business to make empty promises, he works to build true value and products of which we can be honestly proud. He sets the highest expectations for our work and provides a path to meet those expectations. I have learned a great deal from him and would recommend him to any organization.", and "Joseph was an excellent manager and always keen on helping not just people within his own team but those of other teams. Whether it was teaching the OSI model to someone from the Customer Success Team that has an interest in learning more or coaching how to best present during RSA, he was the ‘go to’ guy. He was very engaged and always sought the best from his employees as well as the larger corporate team. He would also take time to review and discuss his vision with any member of the company that had questions or concerns. His holistic approach to management (and all things) was much appreciated. I think this approach has served him well as he has built some incredible teams to help drive his vision of the products he owned. Needless to say, I would be glad to be on any team he was forming if the need and opportunity arose."
