William (Bill) Seidman is a recognized thought leader and expert on management decision-making and Executive Leadership. In particular, Dr. Seidman is renowned for understanding the processes required to harvest and use expert knowledge. Bill's doctorate is from Stanford where he spent eight years studying management decision-making. As part of his doctoral dissertation, he developed a groundbreaking technique for analyzing management decision-making behaviors. The technique enables the examination of decision-making and expert functions down to the single word or single behavior level. The technique is the core of Cerebyte's Executive Leadership Technology, enabling Cerebyte to systematically examine complex management processes and reduce them to a few, easily automated 'best practices.' This technology has been recognized by KMWorld, The Innovation Center, IDC and others as the leading capability for gathering top performer's tacit knowledge, including their underlying passion, and obtaining almost immediate behavior change by less experienced personnel using that knowledge. Bill's credentials extend far beyond academia. He has more than 20 years experience as a manager of profit and loss centers in high technology companies including Hewlett-Packard, Silicon Graphics, Mentor Graphics, and Integrated Project Systems, a Silicon Valley consulting company. As a manager, consultant and later as the Co-Founder and CEO of Cerebyte, he led engagements for Hewlett-Packard, Motorola, Jack in the Box, Compaq, Dell Computer, Novell Systems, McGhan Medical, Tektronix, Nike, Monitor Consulting, Cato Corporation, CVS Pharmacies, Texas Instruments, Intel, AMD, Arthur Andersen, Sears, PriceWaterhouse Coopers, Unifi, Lifetouch, Harvard Business School, University of Minnesota and many others. He is an experienced consultant and manager of fast growth, high technology environments. |
