The Team

Our core team worked together for a number of years prior to PeopleTECH being formed in 2002. They are all highly experienced consultants with strong track records in their respective fields. More importantly, they have managed sales and service operations themselves, so they understand our recommendations must be real world and deliver sustainable change .

Our people are our key asset. Our Consultants and Associates are not only accomplished in their own right, but they work highly effectively together as a team on major assignments.
