About David Parrett

I am an accomplished leader with a demonstrated ability to create innovative marketing initiatives and product strategies that result in growth.Broad-based experience in marketing and product management provides a foundation for success, but my greatest achievements have been directly related to a strength in building mutually beneficial relationships. I am adept in developing and leading high performance teams, and in collaborating beyond my immediate team with stakeholders internal and external to an organization to effectively implement a vision.Companies where I have made a difference include B2B2C and B2B businesses from start-up to midcap, with an emphasis on product lines that merge design and technology in the built environment. I have a deep fluency with markets related to building materials, interior design, the connected home, smart buildings, lighting, and the Internet of Things (IoT).My core strengths include marketing strategy, leadership, relationship building, inbound/outbound marketing, business development, product management, and public speaking.
