DEERFIELD, IL, January 13, 2012
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Excentive International achieved strong results in 2011 throughout Europe and the Middle East; including successes with Vodafone, Saudi Aramco, ClearChannel, Pepsico, Stryker and Mercedes. These results, combined with initial success in the United States, are seen by the company as strong indications that the timing is right to place the North American market at the top of its focus list.
This decision is validated by US analysts. Mark Smith, CEO and Chief Research Officer at Ventana Research in California, has recently published an article on Excentive International. Smith concludes his article with the observation that "Excentive has a good opportunity to shake things up in the compensation application market. Organizations should consider its application and the successes of its customers as part of their own research."
This viewpoint is also supported by Microsoft. "Microsoft has been a strong supporter of us globally and in Europe during the last few years; and now the US operation of Microsoft has put us in their 'High-Potential' partnership program," says Fabio Ronga, CEO of Excentive International.
To drive the accelerated North American strategy, Excentive International has hired a proven leader to make Excentive North America its major operation. As such, Joe Kaddis has joined Excentive as General Manager of Excentive North America. Joe comes with 22 years of experience with enterprise software providers, starting with 5 years at Microsoft followed by 11 years at Hyperion (acquired by Oracle). During the last few years, Joe focused on Compensation solutions, namely with Authoria. "We are thrilled to have Joe Kaddis on board with us. Joe shares the same customer-centric values that make us successful, complemented with the proven local market know-how we were seeking," comments Ronga.
