Since joining TRI^® in 1999, Carlo Peratoner has established the company as one of the world’s leading executive education providers. He is involved in all aspects of the business – client management, development, delivery and operations management. Carlo’s professional skills range from hardware and software design to sales and marketing expertise, cultivated over his 18 years of corporate experience in manufacturing, engineering, information technology, accounting, finance, project management, sales and general business consulting.

Carlo was previously founder and owner of Client Relationship Systems, Inc. (CRS), which offered consulting and information systems technologies and helped companies acquire and retain clients. Services ranged from network design and hardware integration to the development and deployment of complex client management solutions using Microsoft technologies.

Before that, he served as business development manager at CTR Business Systems, a Microsoft Solution partner and provider in Portland, Ore. At CTR, Carlo led the development and management of a customer relationship management (CRM) practice using Pivotal Software’s Relationship software. Carlo managed CTR’s relationship with Pivotal Software, sold and marketed to clients, managed internal project resources, and developed best practices by personally implementing client-serving solutions.

His responsibilities there included managing projects in finance, sales and marketing and product and supplies forecasting, and he served as a primary resource for the development and management of sales compensation programs. Carlo held several engineering and engineering management positions in the telecommunication, information technology, computer and control systems product areas at Tektronix. Carlo was also a faculty member in the firm’s executive development program. The nine-week Manager of Manager’s program offered training in areas ranging from team building skills to business management concepts and received an American Society for Training & Development (ASTD) award for training excellence.
