Where’s Ron?

Since Ron Hanscome is on our blog here, and Ron has recently left HRchitect, a number of people have been asking the question, “Where’s Ron?”, so I thought I would take a few minutes to answer the question.

 

 

Ron recently left HRchitect for a fantastic opportunity at Kenexa where he will be the Vice President of Product Strategy. In that role, Ron will be responsible for product strategy and product marketing across Kenexa’s entire suite of products and solutions. In addition, he will manage all Kenexa industry analyst relations and partnerships.

 

 

Ron was brought on board at HRchitect about a year ago to help further grow our HCM Strategic Planning practice. Ron is a very talented guy and was able to do just that. He also spearheaded the efforts to create “The Suite Life of Integrated Talent Management” report that was released this past May. Ron is not the kind of resource that is easily replaced and he brought a lot to the table. Fortunately everything we do at HRchitect is done in a very collaborative manner so one person doesn’t make or break any project, or practice. Ron was very good at sharing knowledge and working as a team player. Ron worked with a team of consultants who are continuing on projects without skipping a beat and we have signed up a number of new strategic planning projects since Ron’s departure. As a result of all of that, our VP of Consulting Services, Dan Katavola, is overseeing the handful of people we have involved in strategic planning projects.

 

 

Ron will certainly be missed and we wish him all the luck in the world in his new venture at Kenexa and look forward to continuing to work with him, just in a different capacity.
