About Josh Preneta

I am an accomplished global business leader, strategist and marketer with experience in both B2B manufacturing and B2C consumer technology. My skill set includes mergers and acquisitions, long-term planning, product marketing and management, financial modeling, competitive analysis, portfolio planning, and program management. More importantly, I recognize that I’m not always the subject-matter expert and I take great satisfaction in enabling others. My energy and drive comes from leading teams – not individual performances.I understand that a concise and tailored message always beats an 80-page data dump. I have years of experience working with and presenting to executives, both before and after business school. I’ve built lasting commercial relationships and demonstrated the ability to negotiate hard when needed. New challenges excite me. Whether learning a new skill, developing an understanding of a complex technology or building a new relationship, I’m energized by navigating the unknown. Specialties: Business strategy, strategic planning, marketing, product management, mergers and acquisitions, product launches, communications.
