Intel's Jim Matteoni Joins ABL Organization

Santa Ana, CA — January 18, 2011 — Jim Matteoni, Healthcare Business Development Manager at Intel Corporation, 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.

Jim is responsible for driving the implementation of Intel’s healthcare products and services for the leading West Region healthcare organizations. While Intel is known for designing and building the essential technologies that serve as the foundation for the world’s computing devices, it also brings to the healthcare industry its history of innovation, knowledge and experience to connect people and information in new ways.

Intel technologies can enable a shift from reactive healthcare to an ongoing endeavor that puts patients' wellness at the center. In 1999, Intel made a commitment to delivering research‐based technology innovation for healthcare, focused on improving care in clinical environments, advancing personal health technologies for the home, identifying new care models and work practices, and promoting standards and policies that enable innovation and interoperability across the healthcare ecosystem. Since 2004, Intel has been innovating new mobile technologies that help healthcare professionals improve the timeliness, accuracy and effectiveness of care. Embedded Intel Technologies help healthcare organizations deliver innovative solutions to address growing complexity in the field of medicine. Intel processors and chipsets are embedded inside everything from point-of-care terminals to patient monitoring systems, portable diagnostic and therapy devices, and high-end medical imaging systems. Through Intel SOA Expressway for Healthcare, Intel has teamed with strategic partners to offer governments, payers, and large providers the means to address the scale, connectivity and compliance challenges brought on by healthcare IT reform. Intel Health Guide is a next-generation remote patient monitoring device that connects patients at home to their care teams and clinicians. The company's Mobile Clinical Assistant allows for easy access to a patient’s records and the documentation of patient conditions in real time. The Intel Reader is a mobile, handheld device that takes a photo of printed text and reads it aloud to the user, enhancing independence for people with reading-based learning disabilities. And the Intel Healthcare IT Value Model can help organizations evaluate both the potential and actual benefits of their HIT investment approach.

Jim has been in business development and marketing for over 20 years. In addition to working for Intel since 2004, he has worked with for some of the top technology innovators, such as AT&T, Dell and EMC, where he has consistently excelled in helping his customers and their executives reach their goals through the adoption and acceleration of technology.

Jim is a graduate of the University of Arizona.

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 at http://www.abl.org .
