Tom Retallick is a Field Engineer at Momentum Telecom. He possess expertise in networking, troubleshooting, switches, data center, vendor management and 24 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Tom was easily one of the best managers I’ve had. He has the rare mix of being able to lead and command respect while being down-to-earth and great to talk to. He is patient, smart as they come, and kind. I feel very lucky to have had the chance to work for him. " and "It's been my pleasure to work with Tom as a colleague, and I thought so highly of him that a few years later I hired him to manage a 24x7x365 Network Management Center during the hours when I had to sleep. He is utterly reliable, professional, and far more personable than most information technology leaders. His ability to motivate and inspire staff to do tough jobs at all hours of the day and night makes him invaluable, as do his customer service skills. Tom under pressure turns into a diamond, and his integrity extends to the way he manages his staff and takes accountabilty for their development and success. His calm demeanor and steadiness in emergency situations make him an asset to cultivate for any organization that needs the assurance of a sound leader at the helm when customer relationships are on the line. He personally was responsible for ensuring that a group of 20+ had wages and employment for nearly a year longer than otherwise would have been the case during the worst of the dot com collapse period, and I respect him greatly as a man of integrity and a hard worker."
