ABOUT ROBERT BOWDEN
In the office, on the road training clients on emerging information technology threats, or responding to a national-level emergency, I’ve established a track record of success by adapting to each situation based on complexity, scope, and urgency. As a leader, I am known for critical thinking, creative problem solving and team-building to achieve desired outcomes while developing lasting and collaborative relationships. My corporate experiences include executing global information security training programs. Applying strategic planning, financial management, and business development, I’ve led departments affecting more than people and demonstrated a commitment to improving my people and the bottom line through proactive process improvements. As a FEMA Incident Commander and Public Information Officer, I have worked over 60 Search & Rescue, Disaster Relief and Homeland Security missions. That experience along with my educational background as an airline pilot supplements my ability to work under pressure, identify threats and mitigate risks to people and plans, and to make difficult decisions. I am comfortable with worldwide travel and changing environments from boardrooms, to large corporate training centers, and industry trade shows.
