New CEO for Info-Tech

Canada-based IT research and advisory firm Info-Tech Research Group has named Scott Bohannon as Chief Executive Officer.

Info-Tech says it is growing rapidly - revenue up more than 20% this year - and is 'taking advantage of the rapid pace of development' to add 'industry-leading individuals' to its executive team.

Bohannon joins from his own management consulting and advisory firm nsight2day, which focused on helping clients with stakeholder communication. Prior to this he was General Manager and Executive Committee member of global research and consulting firm CEB. He holds MA, JD, and PhD degrees from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, and is currently on the Board of two not-for-profit organizations, Wishes4MeNU and The Goyen Foundation.

Info-Tech founder and Executive Chairman Joel McLean, who will continue leading the company's R&D efforts, enthuses: 'During this next phase of our growth, there is no one better to lead Info-Tech than Scott. He has nearly two decades of experience in creating high-impact research for business executives, and brings a wealth of management experience having run a large, global team. Just as importantly, his style of leadership and his approach to problem solving fit extremely well with our culture.'

Bohannon says one of his initial aims is to spread the firm's client base to 'the thousands of other organizations that haven't enjoyed [its] benefits yet'. He adds: 'We have an exciting pipeline of new, high-impact services we will start releasing this fall.'

The company has offices in Toronto and in London, Ontario and is online at www.infotech.com .
