Resolution Biomedical's CEO, Rob Webber,
Joins ABL Organization
Santa Ana, CA —
January 1, 2010 —
Rob Webber, President and CEO of Resolution Biomedical, Inc., has joined the Adaptive Business Leaders Organization (ABL). As
part of California’s leading vertical-industry Chief Executives’
Organization, ABL Members provide one another with executive leadership
coaching through its confidential, professionally-facilitated, peer-CEO
Advisory Board Round Tables, executive
learning workshops, network of CEO peers, and expert resources.
Resolution Biomedical, Inc. (RBI) is a privately-held specialty
diagnostics company. RBI’s core technology, ClearPrep™, is based on a
proprietary formula that dramatically enhances the quality and
throughput of diagnostic procedures that require visualization through
microscopy, including the 55 million Pap tests, and tens of millions of
urine and other cytology tests performed annually in the U.S. In
addition, RBI packages, sells and distributes high-quality diagnostic
chemistry reagents, and owns exclusive U.S. distribution rights for a
line of rapid test kits used to diagnose various animal diseases.
Previously, Rob served as President, CEO, COO and CFO of Maui Land &
Pineapple Company (NYSE: MLP), a publicly-held Hawaii corporation with
business segments in resort operations (Kapalua), agriculture (Maui Gold
pineapple) and real estate development. Formerly, Rob was President, CFO
and Director of DynTek, Inc. (DYNE.PK), a technology distribution and
services company, which grew during his tenure from $49 million to $75
million in revenues. Rob has also served as President and CEO of
MindArrow Systems, a digital marketing company; President and CEO of
Silicon Film Technologies, a digital imaging hardware company; and COO
of Intelogis, Inc., a Novell spin-off that was later sold to a
subsidiary of Thomson Electronics. Earlier in his career, Rob worked for
McKinsey & Company, primarily serving clients in the health sciences and
technology industries; and worked as a corporate and securities lawyer
for Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom in Los Angeles.
Originally from New York, Rob earned a BA degree from Brigham Young
University, a Juris Doctor degree from Columbia University School of
Law, and an MBA from the Harvard Graduate School of Business
Administration.
"I
know Rob’s fresh approach, experience and expertise will be leveraged
and appreciated by his fellow Members," said Mimi Grant, President of
ABL Organization.
About the Adaptive Business Leaders (ABL) Organization
ABL supports the needs of its Member CEOs by providing a place for
top-level executives to draw on the experience, knowledge and skill sets
of their peers in a vertical industry, personal advisory board –
“multi-coach approach” – setting.
The
core component of the CEO Membership experience is the group Round Table
meeting. Members meet once a month for a half-day with a group of peer
CEOs, Presidents, COOs and Division General Managers from non-competing
companies, all from the same industry (healthcare, technology or life
sciences), in a trusted and confidential board room-like setting, which
allows ABL Members to tackle topics and enhance their decision making
and business performance. Topics include: developing and honing new
business strategies and best practices, new lines of business,
“A-players” on the management team, and an effective board of directors,
as well as understanding trends in new markets, mergers and
acquisitions, compensation, and other “hot” topics brought to the Round
Tables by the Members themselves.
ABL Members also gather several times a year at workshops and
conferences to exchange ideas and connect with other chief executives
beyond their own CEO peer groups. In effect, ABL Members serve as one
another’s business coaches within the Round Tables and are encouraged to
connect and leverage their co-Member peers’ particular skills and
expertise for additional leadership coaching, one-on-one, outside of
their monthly group meeting. In addition, each Round Table’s facilitator
also serves as an objective business advisor, offering executive and
industry insights and advice.
ABL's
Chief Executive Leadership Development Round Table program is currently
offered in California's Greater Los Angeles, Orange and San Francisco
County areas. More information about the ABL Organization can be found
